"Better Days" lyrics

"Better Days"

I just want you near
I didn't even come close
I thought you'd be here
Just when I needed you most

Even though you're not around
I'm holding out for better days
It's unspoken, unbroken
And that's where I stay
That's where I stay

I could cry seven tears
Watch them fall to the floor
I thought you'd be near
Just as I needed you more

Even though you're not around
I'm holding out for better days
It's unspoken, unbroken
And that's where I stay

Even so, although I feel drowned
I'll hang around for better days
It's unspoken, unbroken
And that's where I stay
That's where you find me today

I just want you near
I didn't even come close
I thought you'd be here
Just when I needed you most

Even though you're not around
I'm holding out for better days
It's unspoken, unbroken
And that's where I stay

Even so, although I feel drowned
I'll hang around for better days
It's unspoken, unbroken
And that's where I stay
That's where I stay
That's where I stay
Come and find me today
