Song Lyrics

There was a young girl long ago
who lived a peaceful life untold.
She understood that love was everything.
A jungle took her far away
where her daddy worked, and she would play
with friends who taught her how to be a lady.

She had no rings on her fingers.
She had diamonds in her eyes.
She had no money to be reckoned with.
She had love within her life.
And I heard her singing.

Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
that life is beautiful?

She sang of things that pleased her soul.
She questioned life, and made it known.
She stored her knowledge deep inside her mind.

She had no mansion on a hillside.
She had castles in the sky.
She had no gold for inheritance.
She had time on her side.
And I heard her singing.

Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
that life is beautiful?

And as the years go by,
that peaceful girl was I.
And I'm still singing.

Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
Wouldn't you say
that life is beautiful?
