Song Tribute To U2

Song tribute to U2. There's nothin like a song that has a social message and a hook that keeps you rockin That irish band called U2 has a style and unique sound and a beat that keeps on droppin It's a beautiful day! had it's own special way of making everything ok... everything ok yeah When you're on your own and you don't know why When you're in deep trouble and you want to cry And you don't know why! And you don't know why! And you don't know why! And you don't know why! But it's a beautiful day, and it makes everything ok It's a beautiful day, and you don't even have to stay When you've lost your love, and you've also lost your way When you've had enough, and you can't take one more day Just go ahead and say, yeah yeah, go ahead and say yeah yeah It's a beautiful day, It's a beautiful day, It's a beautiful day Rock historians say this was the best song ever written I think they are right, cause with U2 I'm totally smitten It's a beautiful day, yeah yeah...don't let it get away! To be sung to the melody of It's a beautiful day! By U2 of course! John Derek Hamilton August 18, 2016
