A Beautiful Day


Its a beautiful day
a time where I can have fun and play.
The skies hold the rain away
Its just a beautiful day..

Its a beautiful day,
I daydream about life as I lay.
The trees, how they gently sway,
Its just a beautiful day..

Its a beautiful day
the air is fresh like grass cut in May
the wind with a little gulf breeze spray,
Its just a beautiful day..

Its a beautiful day
I woke up again, I can talk and pray,
I can move about my limbs, I'm loved; I'm here to stay.
Its just a beautiful day..
