Better Times

(album: Better Times - 1992)

As the evening sun comes, sinking down
I see another Golden Age dying
And outside in the city streets
A Christian soul is singing words of warning
So many things been going down
Jesus Christ sometimes I feel like I'm immobilised
'Cause we're living in this stormy world
And the ties of love seem to be unwinding

When there's nothing to hold on to
And there's no one there to comfort you

If you believe
There's better times ahead
There's better days (yeah, yeah)

Now crying it don't count for much
When you're crippled in your soul
You gotta take the hope from deep within
To be lifted up and turned around (yeah, yeah)
And all the people will
All the people will hear the calling
'Cause we're living in this stormy world
And the ties of love seem to be unwinding

Just be guided by the things you are
Don't hold back, don't hold back

If you believe
There's better times ahead
There's better days (yeah, yeah)

I look up and the stars don't shine
And down here another Golden Age is dying
And outside in the city streets
A Christian soul is singing words of warning
So many things been going down
Jesus Christ sometimes I feel like I am immobilised
'Cause we're living in this stormy world
And the ties of love seem to be unwinding

When there's nothing to hold on to
And there's no one there to comfort you
