Better Year

歌詞

If it's late and you hear me calling tonight But I ain't right there and you're wondering why I've made my way to the severed seas Where the sun burns hot and the wind does sing Days away from where I left There's heaven sent eyes in a pickup bed I'm trying harder to get on back But the tides moving in and god's pushing the raft A thousand miles have worn my feet And the body I hold ain't getting sleep Your sweet touch moving closer to me Well, it ain't what I got but it's what I need Hold on, my dear Because I'm fighting like hell to face my fears Someday I'll tame the fires that brought me here And it'll burn like hell But it might as well be the last time you're in tears I'm betting on a better year I'm so far into so many things lord I pray someday I'll earn my wings I've seen hell and been through greed That's a part of me I hope you do not meet Waste my breath on things I hate Like an ongoing trap that I'll never escape But I hope the words that I do sing Leave a mark on you like a wedding ring. Hold on, my dear Because I'm fighting like hell to face my fears Someday I'll tame the fires that brought me here And it'll burn like hell But it might as well be the last time you're in tears I'm betting on a better year I'm betting on a better year You know I dug my grave I was buried alive with my dying faith Your heart beats where I lay And through you it seems I've found my way My dear, you'll see one day All I've done is for heaven's sake
