Christopher - A Beautiful Life Lyrics
(from "A Beautiful Life" soundtrack)
"Baby, I'm pregnant", she said
And I saw my whole life
Flash before my eyes
So much for planning ahead
We're gonna be all right
There won't be a right time
Oh, I said, "I am way too young"
I'm just a kid, I can't raise one
It feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
And I'm gonna miss the times when
It was just the two of us
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
I sure feels like dying
Saying goodbye
To my beautiful life
"Daddy, I can't sleep", she said
Can you leave the light on?
And please sing me my song
And I can't help but think to myself
Those green eyes and brown curls
Turned into my whole world
She's growing up so fast
If only I could make it last
It feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
Cause my baby's getting older
Tomorrow she'll be all grown up
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
I turn off the lights
And say good night
To my beautiful life
Pack her bags and ready to go
We look at each other
She looks like her mother
Off to chase dreams of her own
She cries in the backseat
As we wave at the taxi
Oh, our baby's moving out
Leaving this home an empty house
Feels like my life is over
Feels like my future's crushed
And I'm gonna miss the times when
It was just the three of us
I don't ever want to let go
Of everything that I love
It sure feels like dying
Saying goodbye
To my beautiful life
To my beautiful life
"Baby, I'm pregnant", she said
And I saw my whole life
Flash before my eyes
