Lyrics for Beautiful Day as interpreted by kevin

Beautiful Day 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
Someone you can 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 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 the leaf in her mouth
After the flood, all the colors 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
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day.

this song is about how no matter what the day's really like, it's beautiful on the inside

this, in my opinion, is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. it is impossible to stand still to, i don't mean as a dance song, you can't dance to it, but you have to be walking, or driving, just watching the scenery outdoors go by, to fully appreciate it. I have been listening to this song since i was a baby and have only recently come to appreciate its meaning.
my favorite lines are You're on the road
But you've got no destination

which i saw someone said made the song really sad. i disagree, i love the feeling of travell, not just to get to your destination, but simply for the feeling of being on the road, and i think that is what it's about.

i also love
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day.

Because these lines just make me feel like theres no point me worrying about what i have or don't have, it's a beautiful day and all that really matters is feeling happy.

This is just an extremely positive song. No matter what happens, there are still great things to look forward to.

Yes, it is quite religious, Noah after the flood, the birth of Jesus, and also "touch me, take me to that other place" reminds me about the time Jesus was on the cross and the thief next to him says "remember me in paradise" (paradise being the "other place")

The meaning is simple. Stop worrying, and just take a moment to be awash in and appreciate the beauty of the universe.

I remember when i was a little girl. I used to ride a bike in the backyard behind my home. And one day, the rain drops when i was still on the backyard. Greatfully it was just a drizzle. So i held my head to see the cloudy skies. I just didn't know how or why.. suddenly i cried. My tears fallin' down. I remember the phrase from this song

"After the flood, all the colors came out"

hahaha.. dunno what, why, or how... maybe i just realized how beautiful the skies was... And how true this phrase was..

"After the flood, all the colors came out"

and yeah,, hahaha,, sometimes it becomes my personal motto to TasChiBandGirl

I heard this song when I was about 10 when I had never heard of U2 and thought, "I need to find out who this band is!" U2 is the greatest.

This song is about having somthing good and holding on to it The bass reminds me of a heartbeat so in another way it could be about a baby coming to the world.

This just played on my iPod and now I've burst into tears. I'm not in a good place and this song just highlights that I've got to get myself out of this hole, but...I can't. Every single word has a meaning to me. There's no space to rent, I'm out out of luck, I'm in a rut, but I'm still here, in this town. It's all over me. And I don't know where the hell to go to get myself out of this. But I know I'm not a hopeless case.

I'm waiting for my flood, so I can finally be happy and see a beautiful day without getting mad at life because I can't enjoy it like everyone else around me is. I know I'm not a hopeless case.
