Better Days

And you ask me what I want this year
 And I try to make this kind and clear
 Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
 ♪
 'Cause I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
 And desire and love and empty things
 Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
 
 So take these words
 And sing out loud
 'Cause everyone is forgiven now
 ♪
 'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
 ♪
 I need someplace simple where we could live
 And something only you can give
 And that's faith and trust and peace while we're alive
 And the one poor child that saved this world
 And there's 10 million more who probably could
 If we all just stopped and said a prayer for them
 So take these words
 And sing out loud
 'Cause everyone is forgiven now
 'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
 ♪
 I wish everyone was loved tonight
 And somehow stop this endless fight
 Just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
 So take these words
 And sing out loud
 'Cause everyone is forgiven now
 'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
 'Cause tonight's the night the world begins again
