A lamp is a light
All it knows how to be is bright
A star in the night
All it knows how to do is shine

So be what you are
And not what you're not
You're a gift from God
In a you-shaped box

A bird in the sky
All it knows how to do is fly
A voice and a dream
With a song can everything

So be who you are
And not who you're not
You're a gift from God
In a you-shaped box

That's why the world
Tears you apart
You're a gift from God
In a you-shaped box

You're a gift
You're a gift
In a you-shaped box
Ooh
