Beautiful Day Songwriters: Hewson, Paul; Evans, Dave; Clayton, Adam; Mullen, Larry Jr 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 It was a beautiful day!
