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, hand it over, turn it to you
Though her smile when it happens
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 living
And I know, I know it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Waking 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
And in a minute everything's gonna change
'Cause I know, I know it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
This is what I've been waiting for
(This is what I've been waiting for)
This 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 plaque of the night from the dirt
I can see from the depths of my re-adjustinized reflection
Of yes's and that ever changing sky
But why do bad dreams linger long after I awake?
I don't need no sins or violence or pain replayed
And I feel quit foolish sometimes when I pray
But my thoughts are all I've got
So I try to make them brave
And I know, I know, it's gonna be a good day
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
Hello, hello, you beautiful thing
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
(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
