U2 - Beautiful Day

Back


From the album: All That You Can't Leave Behind.
Directed by: Jonas Âkerlund
Shot at: Charles De Gaulle Airport (Paris)
2000

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
Day
The sky falls and you feel like
Day
It's a beautiful day
Day
Don't let it get away
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
Day
Don't let it get away
Day
It's a beautiful day
Day, 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 clouds
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 colors came out

Day, day

It was a beautiful day
Day
Don't let it get away
Day
Beautiful day
Day, day

Touch me
Day
Take me to that other place
Day
Reach me
Day
I know I'm not a hopeless case
Day

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
Don't need it now
It was a beautiful day
Day

You make a good point, but 10 million Youtube views ain't too shabby, wouldn't you say? During their heyday U2 was popular. The crap stuff is only contemporary.

theres a distinctive reason music like this never reaches the higher end of the charts because this type of music and song requires knowledge it has depth and meaning the lryics mean something wheras all the shite on hit40uk these days apeals to the dumb shites with no taste n songs packed with simplistic lyrics the music industry has no taste these days
