Better Days
Words by Douglas Heyes Jr.

BETTER DAYS
Better Days are comin’
More than I can say
Better days are comin’
In 1000 different ways
If you don't believe me
Then we best be on our way
Cuz better days are comin’
They're already here today

Were you singin’ in the choir
Were you dancin’ on a wire
Were you so inspired
Did you set yourself on fire
When it all fell down
When the circus came to town
Were you a happy clown
Or was your smile upside down?

Did you run away
And pray for Better Days
Did you have to pay
To play it as it lays
Did your world come down around you
I thank the Lord I found you
Let me wrap myself around you
And dream the night away

CHORUS:

Better Days are comin’
More than I can say
Better days are comin’
In 1000 different ways
If you don't believe me
Then we best be on our way
Cuz better days are comin’
They're already here today

Come away with me, my love
We’ll go through the door
Build our castles in the sand
On the shores of Evermore
Till they fall into the sea
Everything, eventually
Must come to pass in this old world
A looking glass, a boy and girl

Baby, you were going under
Hear the thunder, feel the wonder
Tides of change swept you away
Another shipwrecked castaway
Shadow past, lost in a maze
Now set your heart and soul ablaze
And say hello to Better Days

CHORUS:
Better Days are comin’
More than I can say
Better days are comin’
In 1000 different ways
If you don’t believe me
Then we best be on our way
Cuz better days are comin’
They’re already here today
