How beautiful is life
That gives you everything in one go
And then takes it away
It makes you feel guilty
Sometimes it counts on you
Sometimes it doesn't even look at you
How beautiful is life
How beautiful is life
When it dances its dance
That becomes damned
When it changes its plans
Now it's playing with you
Very often sharing with you
How beautiful is life
And it's so beautiful
that it sometimes gets lost
And I let myself go
And it's so beautiful
It's life that you give me
Life - your flowing
Life that makes off
A coward who's fighting
Who's dreaming of what
you're going to lose
Life is giving you over again
How lonely you are - life
But full of people
Who are born and who live
Who come and go
How beautiful is life
So many times huge
It caresses and favors you
It makes you feel so great
sometimes like a child
Sometimes like an enemy
How beautiful is life
How beautiful is life
What a great present for you
And soon taking it all away
It makes you feel like nobody
Sometimes without sense
At other times like a giant
How beautiful is life
And it's so beautiful
that it sometimes gets lost
And I let myself go
And it's so beautiful
What you give me - it's life
Life - your flowing
Life that makes off
a coward who's fighting
Who's dreaming of what you're
going to lose
Life is giving you over again
How lonely you are - life
But full of people
Who are born and who live
Who come and go
Life...
How beautiful is life
Swinging you skillfully
Addressing you formally
and treating you respectfully
Covering you up in blankets
It makes you feel brave
And many other times
like Mr. Nobody
How beautiful is life
