Lyrics
Better Day
©2017 AJ Crawshaw
I’ll just write you a sweet, sweet song
While I wait for the paint to dry and you to dance along
And the seconds turn to hours, written in the sky
The autumn leaves starts falling on the canvas of our lives
I said I’ll be what ever you need
My love I said it but I drag my feet
The grass is far too long, my eyes weary
So I'll rest a while and we’ll just be
I’m not overcome, I just never lived a day
The doors I never rung, echo in my dreams as I lay
I fear I lost the trinket you once gave
When our hearts were young to keep the birds at bay
I’ll close my eyes and ruminate
I’ll hope I’m not restless in the grave
I’m not overcome, I just never lived a day
The doors I never rung, echo in my dreams as I lay
I’m not quite done; ohh I’ll see the sun again
I’ll bury all the debts and rise and sing it’s a better day
It’s a better day when you let it lie
It’s a better day when you let it lie
It’s a better day when you let it lie
It’s a better day when you let it lie
when you let it lie
when you let it die
