[Verse 1] I wore my troubles like shoes Worn thin in the rain Kept walking through the bruises Kept calling your name But I learned how to bend Like a willow in wind And the hard nights that held me Couldn’t hold me again [Pre-Chorus] I saw a crack in the dark A little gold on the floor And I knew, I knew then There was more, there was more [Chorus] Better days coming Better days coming Hold on, darling Better days coming (coming, coming) Better days coming Straight to us [Verse 2] The bills were stacked on the table Like a wall I could climb And the silence in my doorway Kept stealing my time Still I lit one small candle In the middle of the room Told my heart, keep on beating Something new will break through [Pre-Chorus] I saw a crack in the dark A little gold on the floor And I knew, I knew then There was more, there was more [Chorus] Better days coming Better days coming Hold on, darling Better days coming (coming, coming) Better days coming Straight to us [Bridge] If the road turns heavy I’ll still sing my way through Every scar on my hands Is a story I can use Let the storm have its crying Let it shake what it can I was made for the rising I was made for this man [Final Chorus] Better days coming Better days coming Hold on, darling Better days coming (coming, coming) Better days coming We’re almost there Better days coming Better days coming (coming, coming) Better days coming Straight to us
