oh heavenly day, all the clouds blew away
got no trouble today with anyone
the smile on your face i live only to see
it’s enough for me, baby, it’s enough for me
oh, heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day
got no trouble today with anyone
the smile on your face i live only to see
it’s enough for me, baby, it’s enough for me
oh, heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day
tomorrow may rain with sorrow
here’s a little time we can borrow
forget all our troubles in these moments so few
all we’ve got right now, the only thing at all
that we really have to do
is have ourselves a heavenly day
lay here and watch the trees sway
can’t see no other way, no way, no way
heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day
no one at my shoulder bringing me fears
got no clouds up above me bringing me tears
got nothing to tell you, i’ve got nothing much to say
only i’m glad to be here with you
on this heavenly, heavenly, heavenly, heavenly
heavenly day, all the trouble’s gone away
oh, for a while anyway, for a while anyway
heavenly day, heavenly day, heavenly day
I finally got to see Patty Griffin live (per your recommendation) and she sang this song. What a beautiful tune. It's funny though, she wrote this song about her dog, so she finds it flattering but funny that so many people use it at their weddings and such. I love the last picture here, what a pretty little girl.
aww, thanks for the comment, fiona. i'm so happy you got to experience patty live. i think i read that about “heavenly day” somewhere before. it's so funny how one person's day with her dog can be another person's wedding song … or an afternoon at the park with her kid! :)
