Beautiful Day
Paul Oakenfold U2 Lyrics

The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground
Even in the toughest conditions, beautiful things have a way of sprouting up and thriving.

There's no room, no space to rent in this town
Things are so crowded that it's hard to find a way to fit in and make a life for yourself.

You're out of luck and the reason that you had to care,
You're struggling and fighting against a world that doesn't always recognize your efforts or give you what you need.

The traffic is stuck and you're not moving anywhere.
Feeling stuck and trapped, unable to escape the problems that are holding you back.

You thought you'd found a friend to take you out of this place
Pinning your hopes on someone else to help you move forward and make progress in your life.

Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace
Hoping that by helping someone else, you'll be rewarded with the kindness and generosity that you need to succeed.

It's a beautiful day, the sky falls
Even when everything seems to be going wrong, you can still find beauty and joy in the world.

And you feel like it's a beautiful day
Your perspective and your mindset can shape your reality and your experience of the world around you.

Don't let it get away
But you have to actively work to hold on to those moments of beauty and hope, rather than letting them slip away.

You're on the road but you've got no destination
Life is a journey, but sometimes it's hard to know where you're headed or what the next step should be.

You're in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
Sometimes your own thoughts and fears can hold you back and trap you in a cycle of worry and uncertainty.

You love this town even if it doesn't ring true
Even when things aren't perfect and life is hard, there can still be something beautiful and meaningful about the place where you are and the people around you.

You've been all over and it's been all over you
Life can be messy and chaotic, and the experiences you have and the people you meet along the way leave an indelible mark on you.

Touch me, take me to that other place
Sometimes you need someone else to help you, to guide you, or to show you a different perspective on life.

Teach me, I know I'm not a hopeless case
Even when life is hard and you're struggling, you can still learn and grow and find a way to improve your situation.

See the world in green and blue
Changing your perspective and seeing the world differently can help you find beauty and hope even in difficult times.

See China right in front of you
The world is full of amazing and wondrous things that you may never have imagined or experienced before.

See the canyons broken by cloud
Nature itself is a great source of beauty and wonder, and even the most mundane things can take on new meaning.

See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
The world is full of people working hard and making a positive difference in their own way, even when you can't always see it.

See the Bedouin fires at night
There is a great diversity and richness to human culture and experience, full of amazing things to see and learn from.

See the oil fields at first light
Even when things seem bleak and hopeless, the sun will still rise and bring with it new opportunities and possibilities.

See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
Even the smallest and seemingly insignificant things can be a source of beauty and wonder, if you take the time to notice them.

After the flood all the colours came out
Even after the worst moments and the darkest times, there is still hope and beauty to be found, and life can still surprise you in wonderful ways.

What you don't have you don't need it now
Sometimes the things you think you need in order to be happy or successful aren't really as important as you imagine them to be.

What you don't know you can feel it somehow
Even when you don't have all the answers or the information you need, you can still sense things and feel your way forward.

You don't need it now, you don't need it now
Letting go of old fears, desires, and expectations can free you up to enjoy the present and make the most of what you have right now.

Beautiful day
Life is full of beauty and wonder, if you take the time to look for it and appreciate it.
