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 (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
To take you out of this place (ahh-ahh-ahh)
Someone you could lend a hand (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
In return for grace
It's a beautiful day (day)
The sky falls (ahh-ahh-ahh)
You feel like it's a beautiful day (day)
Don't let it get away (ahh-ahh-ahh)
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 (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Even if that doesn't ring true (ahh-ahh-ahh)
You've been all over (ooh-ooh-ooh)
And it's been all over you (all over you)
It's a beautiful day (day)
Don't let it get away (ahh-ahh-ahh)
It's a beautiful day (day)
Ahhhh
Touch me (ahh-ahh-ahh)
Take me to that other place (other place)
Teach me (ahh-ahh-ahh)
I know I'm not a hopeless case (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 (fires at night)
See the oil fields at first light and
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth (ahh)
After the flood all the colors came out (day)
Day
Ahh-ahh
It was a beautiful day (day)
Don't let it get away (ahh-ahh-ahh)
A beautiful day (day)
Ahh
Ooh
Touch me (ahh-ahh-ahh)
Take me to that other place (other place)
Reach me (ahh-ahh-ahh)
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 have fears unknown)
What you don't have (you don't need it now)
Don't need it now (ahh-ahh-ahh)
It was a beautiful day
