To Be Human

Look, I know there ain't much time

But just give me a number

A tiny ray of light

When I get tossed asunder

I don't say it enough

But just know that I love you

I pray you hear me now

Though I can hardly speak

And though my heart is crying out

My voice is much too weak

But soon you will be free

And we're all gonna miss you

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

The sun again will shine

Someday in the future

When there'll be no more crying

I just wish it would happen sooner

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

Someday we'll all end up beneath a stone upon a hill

Where wildflowers are growing and the river runs still

All your friends and family gather round

Tell their favorite stories and lay you in the ground

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human

What a beautiful thing

What a terribly beautiful thing

To be human
