Better Days

And you ask me what I want this year

And I try to make this kind and clear

Just the chance that maybe we'll find better days

Cause I don't need boxes wrapped in strings

And designer love and empty things

Just the chance that maybe we'll find better days



So take these words and sing out loud

Cause everyone is forgiven now

Cause tonight's the night the world begins again



I need someplace simple where we can live

And something only you can give

And that's faith and trust and peace while we're alive

And the one poor Child who saved this world

And there's ten million more who probably could

If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them



So take these words and sing out loud

Cause everyone is forgiven now

Cause tonight's the night the world begins again



I wish everyone was loved tonight

And somehow stop this endless fight

Just the chance that maybe we'll find better days



So take these words and sing out loud

Cause everyone is forgiven now

Cause tonight's the night the world begins again

Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
