The Proclaimers - Better Days lyrics

Maybe if I just think out loud tonight then I'll know what to do Five years all felt the same and then it changed and I was loving you Better days for sure Mary, our love still can bring violins and roses to my mind But I swear I haven't missed a moment of the life I've left behind It's just a fading sound So be with me while decades turn us older We've both much love that lasts a whole life through We could live in Fife or out in Texas Anywhere, as long as I'm with you Last year it seemed the things we've worked for were all gonna come to pa** One hit proclaimed that Mrs. Reid's boys would finally pay some tax Thank the Lord for that Now I'll admit I wasn't too impressed love Events compound the doubts I've had before The only struggle worth it is in the music The other stuff can't interest me at all Mary, we've got to see America, I need to ride those trains This year we're going to take a jet plane there no matter what it takes For the musics' sake
