You think, It never happens to you,
It happens to everybody else,
But when it does you don't know what to do,
I don't think that it's the end,
One day we'll see each other again,
But for now, I know this to be true

What a life, It's a beautiful ride,
Sometimes it hurts, sometimes we cry,
Sometimes we don't really understand
Sometimes we search and don't find all the answers,
And sometimes we just can't find the right words,
To say how much you meant to us,
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride

Do you have a lovely set of wings?
When we speak are you listening?
Why did you have to go so soon?
When there's so many people who love you,
Maybe that's just one thing that we'll never know

What a life, It's a beautiful ride,
Sometimes it hurts, sometimes we cry,
Sometimes we don't really understand
Sometimes we search and don't find all the answers,
And sometimes we just can't find the right words,
To say how much you meant to us,
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride

You made us believe that there's no mountain
That we can't climb,
You always reached for your dreams,
It just doesn't seem like your time,
But you'll live on in all of the people that you knew,
And your two wonderful boys,
Well they'll wanna be just like you

What a life, It's a beautiful ride,
Sometimes it hurts, sometimes we cry,
Sometimes we don't really understand
Sometimes we search and don't find all the answers,
And sometimes we just can't find the right words,
To say how much you meant to us,
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful-
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride,
You always looked on the brighter side,
It's a hard but beautiful ride
