Beautiful World lyrics
by Richie Sambora
[Verse 1]
Every day it's the same when they say that it might be the end
In the end when it ends, then I'll listen to them
You wake up, go to work, go to sleep
Then you do it, you do it, if you're lucky, then you do it again
[Verse 2]
Yeah, we walk through a world that we don't understand
When I look in your eyes, I'm just happy I can
Yeah, we'll laugh and we'll cry and we'll lose and we'll win
We'll get through it and to prove it, yeah, we'll do it again
[Pre-Chorus]
There's glory in the saddest story
[Chorus]
Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're goin', where we've been
This ain't paradise we're livin' in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty plastic pearl
Ah, but ain't it a beautiful world?
[Verse 3]
It's a shame when they say that it's been done and said
They keep diggin' that grave, let them bury their heads
There's a kid with a dream and a sky full of stars
There's another first kiss in the back of some car
[Pre-Chorus]
Turn a page and write the story
[Chorus]
Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're goin', where we've been
This ain't paradise we're livin' in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty plastic pearl
Ah, but ain't it a beautiful world?
[Bridge]
They're runnin' numbers out of the Spanish grocery
And Mary, Mary says her rosary
Get a ladder, there's a cat up in a tree
Ah, the pretzel man's wearin' Gucci glasses
A widow spreads her lover's ashes
I'll hold on to you, hold on to me, yeah
We'll do it, we'll do it, if we're lucky, then we'll do it again, ah
[Chorus]
Look at it, just sticks and bricks
Makes you wonder how the pieces fit
Where we're goin', where we've been
This ain't paradise we're livin' in
It's a diamond, it's a dirty string of pearls
Ah, ain't it a beautiful world?
[Outro]
Oh, ain't it a beautiful world?
Oh-oh
Oh, ain't it a beautiful world?
