Tomorrow Will Be Better Than Today

Hmmm, hmmm
Blue sky, sunshine, late nights, tired eyes
Day after day after day after night
And sometimes I just wonder why
 
When the thoughts I try to put aside
Stack too high for me to climb
Your hands, your hands, slip into mine
Remind me we’ll find a way, if I just give it time
 
So lie with me here tonight
You’ll make my worries slide away
And I promise, in my mind
Tomorrow will be better than today
Tomorrow will be better than today
When it hurts, when it burns,
When sometimes the nights are longer than the days
I hold on to how tomorrow will be better than today
 
When the days go wrong, well there’s a lifetime still in wait
When I can’t write a song, my smile tells more than words could ever say
When the cuts and bruises don’t seem like they’ll ever fade
Well that’s okay
 
We’re in love, regardless of our scars
We’re in love, regardless of our pasts
And next to you is the only place that I ever want to be
So when it gets dark, darling, lie down next to me
 
So dance with me here tonight
You’ll make my worries slide away
And I promise, in my mind
Tomorrow will be better than today
Tomorrow will be better than today
When we break, when we ache,
Hold on and I know we’ll be okay
Tomorrow will be better than today
 
Because, you, you, you
Always say good morning and goodnight
And you, you, you
Make me laugh instead of cry
And I, I, I, I
 
Well here I’ll be
If you need me
Even far apart, I’m always at your side
Because impossible is a word I never learnt
And maybe happiness is just as free as hurt
But I have every intention to stay
Because I believe tomorrow will be better than today
Sometimes ‘it gets better,’ is all that you can say
I believe tomorrow will be better than today
 
So watch the sunrise, wave to the moonlight
Because you are the brightest light to me
The sun is coming up and the darkness fades away
I know tomorrow will be better than today
Better than today
 
Darling, I’ll give you all my tomorrows
Because tomorrow will be better than today.

once i wrote a song (called brave)

Once I wrote a song called brave
Now I think that I’m a coward
And taking the coward’s way
Doesn’t make me less afraid
Just no longer brave
 
Don’t send me back there again
Oh please just let me pretend
That everything’s just fine
That every wrong will right
That I can sleep tonight
(That I can close my eyes)
 
Once I wrote a song called brave
Now I think that I’m afraid
Once I’d stand and fight
But my eyes have lost their light
And I no longer know
How to be brave
 
If I slipped, how long would it take
For me to fall, for me to break
For these shards to find their way
To wherever redemption waits
If there’s anything left to save
I hope you’ll find me there.
 
Once I wrote a song called brave
Now I hang my head
For in the end
I walk away.
