Beautiful Day

The heart is a bloom Shoots up through the stony ground There's no room No space to rent in this town

You're out of luck And the reason that you had to care The traffic is stuck And you're not moving anywhere

You thought you'd found a friend To take you out of this place Someone you could lend a hand In return for grace

It's a beautiful day Sky falls, you feel like It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away

You're on the road But you've got no destination You're in the mud In the maze of her imagination

You're lovin' this town Even if that doesn't ring true You've been all over And it's been all over you

It's a beautiful day Don't let it get away It's a beautiful day, ooh

Touch me Take me to that other place Teach me I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue See China right in front of you See the canyons broken by cloud See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out See the Bedouin fires at night See the oil fields at first light and See the bird with a leaf in her mouth After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day Don't let it get away Beautiful day

Touch me Take me to that other place Reach me I know I'm not a hopeless case

What you don't have you don't need it now What you don't know you can feel it somehow What you don't have you don't need it now Don't need it now

It was a beautiful day
