BEAUTIFUL DAY
U2
The
heart is a bloom, shoots up through 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 it doesn't right 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 the 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
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
A
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, you don't need it now
