It’s a Beautiful Day/Haven’t Met You Yet/Home
[Verse 1]
I don't know why
You think that you could hold me
When you couldn’t get by by yourself
And I don't know who
Would ever want to tear the seam of someone's dream
Baby, it’s fine, you said that we should just be friends
Well I came up with that line and I'm sure
That it's for the best
If you ever change your mind, don't hold your breath

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you may not believe, mm
That baby, I'm relieved
When you said goodbye, my whole world shined, you know it did

[Chorus]
It's a beautiful day and I can't stop myself from smiling
If we’re drinking, then I’m buying
And I know there's no denying, yeah
It’s a beautiful day, the sun is up, and music's playing
And even if it started raining
You wouldn't hear this boy complaining
'Cause I’m glad that you're the one who got away
It's a beautiful day
[Verse 2]
I'm not surprised, not everything lasts
I've broken my heart so many times I stopped keeping track
I talk myself in, I talk myself out
I get all worked up, then I let myself down

[Pre-Chorus]
I tried so very hard not to lose it
I came up with a million excuses
I thought I'd thought of every possibility

[Chorus]
And I know some day that it'll all turn out
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out
And I promise you, kid, I'll give so much more than I get, yeah
I just haven't met you yet

[Bridge]
Now they say all's fair in love and war
But I won't need to fight it
We'll get it right and we'll be united

[Chorus]
And I know someday it'll all turn out
You'll make me work so we can work to work it out
I promise you, kid, I'll give so much more than I get, yeah
I just haven't met you yet
[Verse 3]
Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mm, oh
May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
I wanna go home
And I miss you, you know
Well, I've been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby, how are you?
I would send them, but I know
It's just not enough
My words were cold and flat
You deserve more than that

[Verse 4]
Another winter day
Has come and gone away
In even Paris and Rome
And I wanna go home
Let me go home, yeah
[Chorus]
Let me go home
I've had my run
And, baby, I'm done
It's time to go home
Let me go home
It'll all be all right
And I'll be home tonight
Yeah, I'm coming back home
