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 could lend a hand
In return for grace

It's a beautiful day
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 that 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, 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 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 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, 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

When you stop seeing beauty
You start growing old
The lines on your face
are a map to your soul

When you stop taking chances
You'll stay where you sit
You won't live any longer
But it'll feel like it

I lost myself
In the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself
In the summer rain

In the summer rain

Tequila and Orange
Jamaica and rum
At the Morella
Honey on my tongue

In a small boat on a generous sea
You let me be your enemy
A Tiny hand
With a grip on the world
Holding our breath now
Diving for pearls

I lost myself
In the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself
In the summer rain

Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself

Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself

I lost myself
In the summer rain
I lost myself
Now there's no one else
In the summer rain

Raining down
Raining down
Rain

Raining now
Raining now

Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself

Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself

It's not why you're running
It's where you're going
It's not what you're dreaming
But what you're gonna do

It's not where you're born
It's where you belong
It's not how weak
But what will make you strong

Here today
Gone tomorrow
Crack the bone
Get to the marrow
To be a bee and the flower
Before the sweetness turns too sour

What we have we're gonna keep
Always
What we've lost we don't need
Always
What is it that won't let you sleep
Always

Be the arrow and the target
Put your head over the parapet
Be un-cool
Yes be awkward
Don't look in the obvious place
The soul needs beauty for a soul-mate

Get down off your holy cloud
Always
God will not deal with the proud
Always
Well if you dream then dream out loud
Always
Eternally yours
Always

I want you
I want you
I want you

You shake up and know yourself
Always
Go find you self in someone else
Always
And always wear a safety belt
Always
Wait for me I'm running late
Always
This is the moment that we share
For always
Turning slowly into a prayer
Always

Now and forever
For always
For always
For always
For always

You can reach
But you can't grab it
You can't hold it
Control it but, no
You can't bag it
You can push
but you can't direct it
Circulate
Regulate
Oh no
You cannot connect it

You know you're chewing bubble gum
You know what that is
But you still want some
You just can't get enough
Of that lovey-dovey stuff

You get confused
But you know it
Yeah, you hurt for it
Work for it, love
You don't always show it

Let go, ohhh, discotheque
Let go, ohhh, discotheque

Looking for the one
But you know you're
Somewhere else instead
You wanna be the song
The song that you hear
In your head

It's not a trick
'Cause you can't learn it
It's the way that you don't pay
That's okay
'Cause you can't earn it
Let go, ohhh, discotheque
Let go, ohhh, discotheque

Looking for the one
But you know you're
Somewhere else instead
You wanna be the song
The song that you hear in your head

Love, love

You want heaven
Heaven in your heart
You want heaven
Heaven in your heart
But you take what you can get
'Cause it's all that you can find
Yeah you know there's something more
But tonight, tonight, tonight

Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque
Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque
Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque
Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque

Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque
Boom cha, boom cha, discotheque

Tonight
The moon is playing tricks again
Yeah, I'm feeling seasick again
The whole world could just dissolve
Into a glass of water

I've been good
'Cause I know you don't want me to
Do you really want me to be blue as you
It's her daylight that gets me through

If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress

Tonight
The moon is a mirror-ball
Light flickers from across the hall
Who'll catch the star when it falls

If you wear that velvet dress
If you wear that velvet dress
That velvet dress
That velvet dress
That velvet dress
