Dermot Kennedy – Better Days Lyrics

 

Better Days Lyrics by Dermot Kennedy (feat. EARTHGANG)

 

Better days are coming
If no one told ya
I hate to hear you crying
Over the phone, dear
For seven years running
You’ve been a soldier
But better days are coming
Better days are coming for you (Better days)

So when the night feels like forever
I’ll remember what you said to me

I know you’ve been hurting
Waiting on a train that just won’t come
The rain, it ain’t permanent
And soon, we’ll be dancing in the sun
We’ll be dancing in the sun (Yeah)

And we’ll sing your song together
And we’ll sing your song together

Uh, better days ahead, I keep telling myself (Okay)
Things I’m facing now, nobody can help
It’s a crazy past but I grew right through it
Like roses in the concrete, so beautiful
Counted out
Faced with doubt, but my head never bowed
I never surrender, I remain a contender
When them chances are slimmer and branches are thinner
I step out on faith, show myself I’m a winner

When my corner is empty
So called friends resent me
I slide in the ring with the champion swing
Right hooks write the pages of the greatest victory
Look what they did to me, they created a monster
Who will never be defeated, who will never be conquered
So I gotta thank my haters, you the greatest of sponsors (Hey, thanks)
Long as I’m alive, know my days gettin’ better
We’ll rise together
We’ll shine forever
Yeah

So when the night feels like forever
I’ll remember what you said to me (Come on)

I know you’ve been hurting
Waiting on a train that just won’t come (I know you waitin’)
The rain it ain’t permanent (It ain’t forever baby)
And soon, we’ll be dancing in the sun (Haha, yeah)
We’ll be dancing in the sun (In the sun)

And we’ll sing your song together (You and me)
And we’ll sing your song together (Haha)
And we’ll sing your song together (Yeah)
And we’ll sing your song together (Better days)

Your story’s gonna change
Just wait for better days (I know you waitin’)
You’ve seen too much of pain
Now you don’t even know (Haha)
That your story’s gonna change
Just wait for better days (Better days)
I promise you I won’t let go

I know you’ve been hurting
Waiting on a train that just won’t come (Tired of waiting)
The rain, it ain’t permanent
And soon, we’ll be dancing in the sun (It ain’t forever baby)
We’ll be dancing in the sun

And we’ll sing your song together (Woo)
And we’ll sing your song together (Look at us, haha)
And we’ll sing your song together
And we’ll sing your song together (Better days on the way)
