Like a flower
Like a china plate
Like a butterfly's wing
Like a crystal vase
Like the sunlight through a stained glass
Of a Sunday morning chapel
Life is beautiful
Life is fragile
It breaks too easy
It ends too fast
You're in the moment
Then the moments passed
It's a first step
A last breath
A flickering candle
Life is beautiful
Life is fragile
Like a promise
Like a prayer
Like the ray of hope
You cling to when you're scared
Like the sudden sound of silence
That follows a battle
Life is beautiful
Life is fragile
So lay beside me
Let me hold ya close
How long we have together
No one knows
I'm gonna kiss you like I'm trying
To make time stand still
From our first breath
To our last breath
It's a flickering candle
Life is beautiful
Life is fragile
