Better Days

I've been looking around, but there's nothing I've found

To catch my attention like you always did when we were southern bound

When the thrill of the chase put a smile on my face

And the heat of the morning helped forget our fears for the human race

Sometimes it feels as if the world's already broken

But after all I think I've felt this way before

Will you drink with me to better days, no matter what they say?

We might not know the answers, but we'll always find a way

Will you drink with me to better days, a stranger or a friend?

We might not know the answers, but we'll find them in the end

It's late in the night, another hour falls

We're talking at length about some love affair I can scarce recall

Tales of old acquaintance that we seldom bring to mind

Like some kind of elegy for another world that we left behind

Sometimes it feels as if the world's already broken

But after all I think I've felt this way before

Will you drink with me to better days, no matter what they say?

We might not know the answers, but we'll always find a way

Will you drink with me to better days, a stranger or a friend?

We might not know the answers but we'll find them in the end

I'm putting my cares to the back of my mind for later

Or folding them all inside of an old newspaper

Rolling them up just to set them alight

Watching them drift up and up into the sky at night

Sometimes it feels as if the world's already broken

But after all I think I've felt this way before

Will you drink with me to better days

No matter what they say?

We might not know the answers

But we'll always find a way

Will you drink with me to better days

A stranger or a friend?

We might not know the answers

But we'll find them in the end
