Timothy Lyrics

Is your extra chromosome

That twinkle in your eyes?

Or is it your beautiful smile?

Is it your infectious laugh?

Or the care you take?

So gentle, gentle

You're not a downer

You're a beautiful star

I wish I was more like you are

Shining so bright for me to see

Without you, our lives would be empty

Can't you see?

Believe me

I know you're shorter than most

But what's inside shines through

You're stubborn and honest

You're much more than I was promised

Your loving, monstrous hugs

Makes me feel so alive, alive

You're not a downer

You're a beautiful star

I wish I was more like you are

Shining so bright for me to see

Without you, our lives would be empty

Can't you see?

Believe me

You're one in a thousand

But that's not why you're special

It's the way your laughter fills our house

It's the way you smile with all your face

You rise up against it all

Stronger and stronger, my brother

You're not a downer

You're a beautiful star

I wish I was more like you are

Shining so bright for me to see

Without you, our lives would be empty

Can't you see?

Believe me

Oh, won't you believe me, please
