"Better Life" lyrics
"Better Life"
I don't know which way you're going
And I don't know the things you've seen
All I know is I'm still holding onto
Every word you said to me
And as I land on the sand of your shores
I know there's so much more
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
On our way to better days, can you leave it all
Behind, when you look into my eyes
There's a better life
There's a better life
I feel the rhythm of your heartbeat
Running through me like a drum
Someday we'll go back like car seats
Began as strangers but I know what we'll become
Even though I'm from so far away
It's here I wanna stay
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
On our way to better days, can you leave it all
Behind, when you look into my eyes
There's a better life
There's a better life
And if you promise that you'll open your door
I trust that you won't lie to me
Just show me something more, so I can see
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
Ooh, there's a better life, yeah
On our way to better days, there's a better life, yeah
There's a better life, yeah
There's a better life, yeah
On our way to better days, there's a better life, yeah

"Better Life" was released on the 1st of January 2021. It is the lead single from Joshua Radin's 2021 album, "The Ghost and the Wall".
Joshua Radin explained the following about this song in the description of its official music
video,
"I wrote 'Better Life' while imagining what it might feel like to come to America, seeking refuge from another place – a place that may have been dangerous or even lethal had that someone stayed and not been brave nor desperate enough to set out on a long, arduous journey for freedom and new way of living with hope filled hearts. Remember, we all descend from immigrants at some point in our family's history. Every time I see footage of children in cages, I remind myself of this."
