[Verse 1] The kettle sings by dawn Your shoes by the door Last week left a mark But it won't stay sore I watched the rain run out On the screen porch rail And I felt something lean in Like a good wind in my mail [Pre-Chorus] Hold on, hold on I can feel that change Hold on, hold on It's coming round the bend [Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Keep that faith alive Better days are coming (coming) [Verse 2] The old hurt knows my name But it missed me today I found a lighter step In the middle of the way Your laugh hit the room Like sun through the glass And all the heavy shadows Let us slip right past [Pre-Chorus] Hold on, hold on I can feel that change Hold on, hold on It's coming round the bend [Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Keep that faith alive Better days are coming (coming) [Bridge] If the road turns long We'll still walk it bright 'Cause hearts like ours Were built for light [Final Chorus] Better days are coming Better days are coming Keep that faith alive Better days are coming (coming)
