[Verse 1]
The heart is a bloom
It 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
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
[Chorus 1]
It’s a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus 2]
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
[Bridge 1]
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
[Chorus 2]
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
[Bridge 2]
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
[Chorus 3]
Was a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
It’s a beautiful day
[Outro]
What you don’t have, you don’t need it now
What you don’t have, you don’t need it now
Don’t need it now, don’t need it now
Don’t need it now…
