Fall out of bed and catch a fading star
Fancy I woke up before my alarm
Brought my mind through my eyes
It's the best I can do
Before it's automatic habit of returning to you
Though her smile when it happened, almost as if it was magic
It means there's a God somewhere and He's laughing
And I shuffle my slipperless toes to the kitchen
Still low to the ground, but high on livingAnd I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thingWaking up, I stretch my body and acknowledge some aches
It must be something I did yesterday
Pour a cup of liquid gold, because my engine's still cold
But in a minute everything's gonna change'Cause I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thingYes I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thingThis is what I've been waiting for (this is what I've been waiting for)Looking out from a cul de sac watching the band of the Earth take the black of the night from the dirt
I can see from the depths of my readjusting eyes
Of reflections of yes's in that ever changing sky
But why do bad dreams linger long after I awake?
I don't need no scenes of violence or pain replayed.
And I feel quite foolish sometimes when I pray
But my thoughts are all I've got so I try to make them braveAnd I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Hello, hello, you beautiful thingOh now this is what I've been waiting for (this is what I've been waiting for)
Oh this is what I've been waiting for (this is what I've been waiting for)
Oh this is what I've been waiting for (this is what I've been waiting for)
Oh this is what I've been waiting for (Hello)And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing...
