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
Someone you could lend a hand in
return for grace
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
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 colours
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
You don't need it now
