Beautiful Day

The heart is a bloom

Shoots up through the stony ground
There is 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 movin' anywhere
You thought you'd found a friend

To take out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day

Sky falls, you feel like
A beautiful day
Don't let it get away
You're on the road

But you got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination
You love 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
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
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
It's a beautiful day

Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
So 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 somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day
Was a beautiful day
