|
the heart is a bloom |
|
shoots up through the stony ground |
|
theres no room |
|
no space to rent in this town |
|
|
|
youre out of luck |
|
and the reason that you had to care |
|
the traffic is stuck |
|
and youre not moving anywhere |
|
you thought youd found a friend |
|
to take you out of this place |
|
someone you could lend a hand |
|
in return for grace |
|
its a beautiful day |
|
sky falls, you feel like |
|
its a beautiful day |
|
dont let it get away |
|
youre on the road |
|
but youve got no destination |
|
youre in the mud |
|
in the maze of her imagination |
|
|
|
you love this town |
|
even if that doesnt ring true |
|
youve been all over |
|
and its been all over you |
|
|
|
its a beautiful day |
|
dont let it get away |
|
its a beautiful day |
|
|
|
touch me |
|
take me to that other place |
|
teach me |
|
i know im 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 |
|
dont let it get away |
|
beautiful day |
|
|
|
touch me |
|
take me to that other place |
|
reach me |
|
i know im not a hopeless case |
|
|
|
what you dont have you dont need it now |
|
what you dont know you can feel it somehow |
|
what you dont have you dont need it now |
|
dont need it now |
|
was a beautiful day |
