Better Days

You, my friend, must realize
The time we have won't last
You can't erase the past
Lord knows I've tried
There are times I've been weighed down
Black and blue inside me
Old wounds still residing
Beneath my skin

So let's raise a glass
To better days
Forget the past
And our wicked ways
Let me just sing
This one last song
And make this feelin' last
All night long

A fresh start is what you need
So let's begin again
I will be your friend
From this day on
You can rely upon me
If you ever need to
I will help you get through
And find your way

So let's raise a glass
To better days
Forget the past
And our wicked ways
Let's sing together
This one last song
And make this feelin' last
All night long

Forgive yourself
Know all is well
Dust yourself off
And tell your blues
To go to hell

So let's raise a glass
To better days
Forget the past
And our wicked ways
Let me just sing
This one last song
And make this feelin' last
All night long
