Better Days

Silver gray hair neatly combed in place

  • Silver gray hair neatly combed in place
  • There were four generations of love on her face
  • She was so wise no surprise passed her eyes
  • She'd seen it all
  • I was a child oh about three or four
  • All day I'd ask questions
  • At night I'd ask more
  • But whenever she never would ever turn me away
  • I'd say how can I be sure what is right or wrong
  • And why does what I want always take so long
  • Please tell me where does God live
  • And why won't he talk to me
  • I'd say grandma what is love
  • Will I ever find out
  • Why are we so poor what is life about
  • I want to know the answers before I fall off to sleep
  • She sort of smiled as she tucked me in
  • Then she pulled up that old rockin' chair once again
  • But tonight she was slightly remarkably
  • Different somehow
  • Slowly she rocked lookin' half asleep
  • Grandma yawned as she stretched
  • Then she started to speak
  • What she told me would mold me and hold me
  • Together inside
  • She said all the things you ask
  • You will know someday
  • But you have got to live in a patient way
  • God put us here by fate
  • And by fate that means better days
  • She said child we are all moons in the dark of night
  • Ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right
  • Can't get to better days lest you make it through the night
  • You gotta make it through the night yes you do
  • You can't get to no better days
  • Unless you make it through the night
  • Oh you will see those better days
  • But you gotta be patient
  • Be patient oh baby be patient
  • Later that year at the turn of spring
  • Heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings
  • Now she's flying and sliding and gliding
  • In better days
  • And although I'm all grown up
  • I still get confused
  • I stumble through the dark
  • Getting bumped and bruised
  • When night gets in my way
  • I could still hear my grandma say
  • I can hear her say
  • I I I I I I I I I can hear her say
  • You can't get to no better days
  • Unless you make it through the night baby
  • Oh you will see those better days
  • But you gotta be patient
  • Child do you hear me yeah
  • You can't get to no better days
  • Unless you make it you got to make it
  • You got to make it
  • You got to make it through the night
  • Oh grandma oh grandma
  • Do you see me now lady
  • Oh oh oh oh oh
  • You can't get to no better days
  • Unless you make it you got to make it
  • You got to make it
