It's the most beautiful thing I think I've ever seen

A homeless child playing with something as simple as a cardboard box and he seems so happy

With that smile on his face like nothing matters he's so serene

When he doesn't even know if he's gonna live through another day worrying about what he's gonna eat

When I look at that it kinda makes me feel guilty

Cause the world that I'm living in only seems to care about having enough money

To buy luxurious things that we don't even need

I'm not trying to be the good girl to save the world cause I do the same damn thing

[Chorus]

Isn't it a shame, but we only have ourselves to blame

But love is the most beautiful thing

But its a lost somewhere along the way to money and fame (to money and fame)

Isn't the world a crazy place?

We were all brought up with different dreams and beliefs

But the one thing we all need is to be loved by friends and family

And when a child like that with no parents around is able to smile makes me feel very weak, small, and vulnerable

When I look at that it kinda makes me feel guilty cause the world that I'm living in only seems to care about having enough money, to buy luxurious things that we don't even need

I'm not trying to be the good girl to save the world cause I do the same damn thing

[Chorus]

Isn't it a shame, but we only have ourselves to blame

But love is the most beautiful thing

But its a lost somewhere along the way to money and fame (to money and fame)

Isn't the world a crazy place?

It makes me conscious of all of the things I have and makes me feel oh so fast

It makes me want to follow my dreams

And tries to be a better person

It takes me to a higher level

It makes me wipe away all my tears

It helps me put a smile on my face

Cause everything I need is right here?

Isn't it a shame, but we only have ourselves to blame

But love is the most beautiful thing

But it's a lost somewhere along the way to money and fame (to money and fame),

Isn't it a shame, but we only have ourselves to blame

But love is the most beautiful thing

But its a lost somewhere along the way to money and fame

Isn't the world a crazy place ( isn't the world, .. isn't the world..)
