| 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 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
|
| 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 |
