Better Day

So what's been going on with you?
Where did that smile on your face go?
Remember when we used to sit and listen to those records?
You know, reminiscing about the good ol' days
I'm missing you from Carolina to the Golden State
You've been feeling hopeless, and angry, and broken
(Take me back to the good ol’ days)
And you've been feeling sad, so frustrated, and confused
(Take me back, take me back)
You've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
Cause you've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
You've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
Cause you've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
You've been looking in the mirror and wondering where the time has gone
And "how can I live with myself if I end up alone?"
This is something you think about a lot
You've be waiting on the warmth of the sun on a cold day
Why not just hop in my ride and take a ride with me? (Yeah, take a ride with me)
You've been feeling hopeless, and angry, and broken
(Take me back to the good ol’ days)
And you've been feeling sad, so frustrated, and confused
Cause you've been waiting for a better day
To come along and love you like it used to
Mend the pieces of your heart
Cause you've been waiting for a better day
To come along and love you like it used to
Mend the pieces of your heart
To love you like it used to, like it used to
To love you like it used to
To love you like it used to, like it used to
To love you like it used to
Take me back to the good ol' days
We've been waiting for it, you've been waiting for it
Take me back to the good ol' days
We've been waiting for it, you've been waiting for it
I know you're still waiting for it
I know you're still waiting for it
Just like me and all the rest of us
Cause you've been waiting for a better day (Waiting for it)
To come along and love you like it used to
Mend the pieces of your heart
Cause you've been waiting for a better day (Waiting for it)
To come along and love you like it used to
Mend the pieces of your heart
You've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
Cause you've been waiting for a better day, a better dag
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
You've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
Cause you've been waiting for a better day, a better day
(To love you like it used to, like it used to)
Take a ride with me
Take a ride with me
Take a ride with me
