Dedicate song lyrics Better days by Bruce Springsteen

Well my soul checked out missing as I sat listening
To the hours and minutes tickinī away
Yeah, just sittinī around waitinī for my life to begin
While it was all just slippinī away.
Iīm tired of waitinī for tomorrow to come
Or that train to come roarinī īround the bend
I got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose
And a woman I can call my friend

These are better days baby
Yeah thereīs better days shining through
These are better days baby
Better days with a girl like you

Well I took a piss at fortuneīs sweet kiss
Itīs like eatinī caviar and dirt
Itīs a sad funny ending to find yourself pretending
A rich man in a poor manīs shirt
Now my ass was dragginī when from a passinī gypsy wagon
Your heart like a diamond shone
Tonight Iīm layinī in your arms carvinī lucky charms
Out of these heard luck bones

These are better days baby
These are better days itīs true
These are better days
Thereīs better days shining through

Now a life of leisure and a pirateīs treasure
Donīt make much for tragedy
But itīs a sad man my friend whoīs livinī in his own skin
And canīt stand the company
Every foolīs got a reason to feelinī sorry for himself
And turn his heart to stone
Tonight this foolīs halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell
And I feel like Iīm cominī home

These are better days baby
Thereīs better days shining through
These are better days
Better days with a girl like you

These are better days baby
These are better days itīs true
These are better days
Better days are shining through
