Beautiful Again

She was only ten when her daddy got fired
 He drank away the family home and left them all alone
 And then her mommy was just too tired
 She got sent away
 She moved in with her aunt in Arizona
 Everything was fine until she told on uncle Bill
 When he said he only wanted to hold her
 She had to run away
 But when it rains
 The past gets washed away and then
 She smiles 'cause she knows in the end
 The world gets beautiful, beautiful again

 Her boyfriend said, "I'm way too young to get married"
 But she made up her mind that somehow she was gonna
 Find a way to keep that baby she carried
 And he just walked away
 But when it rains
 The past gets washed away and then
 She smiles 'cause she knows in the end
 The world gets beautiful, beautiful again, yeah
 And when she's lying all alone
 Thinkin' about her life she wonders
 If she is wrong to believe in a better world
 Then she sees her little girl
 And she knows (she knows) she is right (she is right)
 'Cause when it rains (when it rains)
 The past gets washed away and then
 She smiles 'cause she knows in the end
 The world gets beautiful
 (The world gets beautiful)
 Beautiful again, yeah, yeah
