Beautiful Day Lyrics
Artist: U2
Album: All That You Can't Leave Behind
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. (day . . .)
The sky falls, and you feel like
it's a beautiful day. (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 (day . . .)
don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day. (day . . .)
hoo . . hoo . . . hoo
Touch me
take me to that other place
Teach me . . . oh
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
(day . . .)
It was a beautiful day (day . . .)
don't let it get away
Beautiful day (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
don't need it now . . .
[It] Was a beautiful day

Comments/Interpretations
I start my day often with this song!
Me too! I love U2.
Such a sad song. Whe you can appreciate the irony and the truth behind the words it's so sad.
When they say "Teach me... oh" it should be "Teach me... babe"
