LYRICS
It’s a beautiful day
People around me
Move and sway
Birds in the palm trees
Call my name
All I can feel is down down down
I go somewhere
Drink til I grow wings
Find someone to help me forget things
That brand new
Ain’t gonna help me now now now
And if I feel like crying It’s just a temporary low
Don’t try to comfort me
Let it go, let it go, let it go
Cuz I don’t know
Why
Some days get hold of me
Sometimes it’s hard to just be happy
And I could try
Don’t seem no use to me
Sometimes it’s hard to just be happy
So I’m gonna ride this low
See where it takes me
Ebbs and flows
Don’t try to save me I’m alright
My world keeps spinning round and round
So if you see me crying I don’t need no consolation I just need some time And I know that I’m gonna be fine
But I can’t say All I need is time to breathe and I will be alright
So no matter how this goes
Ain’t gonna cry and I ain’t gonna whine about it no more
Please tell me
