מילים לשיר Better Days – Bruce Springsteen

Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening
Yeah, just sittin' around waitin' for my life to begin
To the hours and minutes tickin' away
I'm tired of waitin' for tomorrow to come
While it was all just slippin' away.
I got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose
Or that train to come roarin' 'round the bend.
And a woman I can call my friend These are better days baby
Yeah there's better days shining through
Better days with a girl like you
These are better days baby Well I took a piss at fortune's sweet kiss
It's like eatin' caviar and dirt
Now my ass was draggin' when from a passin' gypsy wagon
It's a sad funny ending to find yourself pretending
Tonight I'm layin' in your arms carvin' lucky charms
A rich man in a poor man's shirt
Your heart like a diamond shone
These are better days baby
Out of these heard luck bones These are better days it's true
There's better days shining through
These are better days Now a life of leisure and a pirate's treasure
Don't make much for tragedy
But it's a sad man my friend who's livin' in his own skin
And can't stand the company
Every fool's got a reason to feelin' sorry for himself
Tonight this fool's halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell
And turn his heart to stone
And I feel like I'm comin' home There's better days shining through
These are better days baby
Better days with a girl like you
These are better days These are better days baby
These are better days
These are better days it's true
Better days are shining through.
