Better Days Coming
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When you're standing on the edge
Barely hanging by a thread
You hear your heart convince your head that you just
Can't no more
You just can't no more
When there's nothing left to give
And you wanna call it quits
No longer strong enough to pick yourself up off the floor
Up off the floor
Hold on my friend
Cause there'll be
Better days coming
Don't give up
The hands that are holding tomorrow
Are still holding onto us
Better days coming
Watch and see
We'll dance through the pain and the sorrow
Knowing there's gonna be
Better days
So don't you get too comfortable
Where you're living ain't your home
Soon the promise gonna come, I know
It won't be long
It won't be long
Hope is tearing through the night
Shadows running from the light
Love's awakening inside
Just like a brand new song
Like a brand new song
Better days coming
Don't give up
The hands that are holding tomorrow
Are still holding onto us
Better days coming
Watch and see
We'll dance through the pain and the sorrow
Knowing there's gonna be
Better days
Better days
Better days, better days
If it's not good
Then it's not over yet, not over
I promise you this is not the end
(No, it's not, no, it's not the end)
If it's not good
Then it's not over yet, not over
I promise you this is not the end
Better days coming
Don't give up (Don't give up)
The hands that are holding tomorrow
Are still holding onto us
Better days coming
Watch and see (We believe, we believe)
We'll dance through the pain and the sorrow
Knowing there's gonna be
Better days
If it's not good
Then it's not over yet, not over
I promise you this is not the end
There's gonna be better days
If it's not good
Then it's not over yet, not over
I promise you this is not the end
Better days, better days
