[Verse 1]
You can't judge the love by the lover
The sky by its thunder
The road with no sign
You can't make the snow fall in summer
Or make him not want her
And not leave you behind
Maybe he'll stay in touch years down the road
And hope that he's still on your mind

[Chorus]
The sun may come up and go down again
I'll still swear it's a beautiful life

[Verse 2]
Maybe we'll meet up in Denver
Talk about weather
Talk of old times
I know every word that we said was
What we both meant
Well, we meant it at the time
Promise me that you'll be standing up straight
Chasing rivers and shadows and time

[Chorus]
The sun may come up and go down again
I'll still swear it's a beautiful life
[Bridge]
Time flies
Time cries, oh
Time flies
Time cries

[Verse 3]
So swim to the end of the river
Until there's no shiver
Left in your spine
Live like there won't be tomorrow
See through your sorrow
See through your own eyes
Try to remember these days down the road
And try to remember this time

[Chorus]
The sun may come up and go down again
I'll still swear it's a beautiful life

[Outro]
The sun may come up
The sun may go down
The sun may come up
The sun may go down, oh
The sun may come up
The sun may go down
I'll still swear it's a beautiful life
