[Verse 1] The day's gold slips off the docks And paints the water slow I held my breath through the hard hours Now I let my shoulders go The tide keeps time in the harbor Like it knows what we don't say Even hurt can learn to soften When the light gives way [Pre-Chorus] So I lean into the evening Let it wash across my face I can feel the road ahead now Even if it's out of place [Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Hold on, baby, hold on Better days are coming Better days are coming We're almost through the storm (hold on) [Verse 2] Your hands still carry the struggle Dust from the workday floor But I see a little hope in them I don't see the ache no more The moon lifts up from the rooftops Like a promise kept in blue And every little broken hour Turns itself toward you [Pre-Chorus] So I lean into the evening Let it wash across my face I can feel the road ahead now Even if it's out of place [Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Hold on, baby, hold on Better days are coming Better days are coming We're almost through the storm (hold on) [Bridge] If the night gets long I'll be your candle in the hall If your heart gets tired I'll be there to catch the fall We don't need to know the whole way Just the next small step in view One more breath, one more morning One more road to new [Final Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Hold on, baby, hold on Better days are coming Better days are coming We're almost through the storm (hold on) Better days are coming Better days are coming And I believe it's true (better days)
