Beautiful Day (Songs Of Surrender)
[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
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
[Chorus]
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 ovеr
And it's been all over you
[Chorus]
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it gеt away
It's a beautiful day, yeah
[Refrain]
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
[Bridge]
I saw the world as your blue room
I saw the seven seas swallowing the moon
East of Finglas, North of Eden
Laughter is the evidence of freedom
I saw Adam asking Eve for a pardon
It wasn't a woman who threw God out of the Garden
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out
[Chorus]
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
[Refrain]
Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case
[Verse 3]
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]
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
[Outro]
Beautiful day
Don't let it get away
