How beautiful the world is tonight
The rise and fall of your chest with the flickering lights
The city cured the illness in your mind
From hurt and grieving to caring and kind

How beautiful the world is tonight
A sun rise in the mountains to the right
The country cured the sickness in your heart
From broken and shattered to a work of art
How beautiful the world is tonight

And in these places, I see the volcanoes in your eyes
Like fireworks, it sparkles as if impearled
And in these places, I see the Tsunami's in your eyes
It's all you, darling, you are the world

How beautiful the world is tonight
Breathtaking and lovely, for you I write
As you sleep peacefully, hair falling in your face
I wouldn't want be in any other place
How beautiful the world is tonight
