(Originally by U2)


The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground

But 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

Always

Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace 

Always


It's a beautiful day

The sky falls and 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 

Always


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 


Day


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 


It's warm in the sun, I reach to the sun
