If there's a finger-painted house Hanging on the fridge If there are toys left on the couch And crumbs from sandwiches If there are backyard dandelions Wilting in a vase You know it's been a good day Everything that's beautiful is right under our nose Shining like a diamond in the chaos of our homes When it's so familiar it makes it hard to see We already have all that we need for a good day Good day If you have dishes left to do And laundry on the floor If there's a mound of muddy shoes Piled up by the door If there are candles to blow out And memories you wouldn't trade You know it's been a good day Everything that's beautiful is right under our nose Shining like a diamond in the chaos of our homes When it's so familiar it makes it hard to see We already have all that we need for a good day It's a good day If you get hugs around the neck Or kisses on the cheek If you get to hold a sticky hand Or wash a skinned up knee If you can read a Goodnight Moon Until they drift away You know it's been a good day You know it's been a good day
