U2 – Beautiful Day (Live From Farmclub) lyrics

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
Always
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace
Always

It's a beautiful day
The sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day

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
Always

It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
A beautiful day

Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, love, I know I'm not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyon broken by clouds
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
Beautiful day

Touch me, love, take me to that other place
Teach me, love, 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 somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
You don't need it now, don't need it now
It was a beautiful day

Soul, soul
The goal, the goal is soul
Goal, goal, goal
The goal is soul
Sing it
Beautiful day
