Lyrics
Better Day
Open your weary eyes
I know this day brings the same pain you felt last night
And I know it's a
Another day in the war that we try to win,
But it's another day that you're not home from the fight
And we both know that it's not right
So I pray for the day you burn bright
As the star above that takes your name into the sky
And I'll never say goodbye
Don't you be afraid
Cause you know we're both in store for a better day
You know that you're my life
And all of my dreams came true even if we're short on time
If God puts your mind at peace and if he walks you in ahead of me to sea's of white
I'll never say goodbye
I've nothing but pride in hind sight
To say you've been mine for life and I'd weather the endless fight
So tell the angels at your bedside
And don't you be afraid
Cause you know we're both in store
For a better day
Til the end of time
You are my life
And I'll never say goodbye
So tell the angels at your bedside
And don't you be afraid
Cause you know we're all in store
For a better day
