Better Day

Sonny signed his name up for tomorrow
 And laughed with all his friends
 At all the little men who borrow tunes
 They heard just yesterday
 Davey got us down but we got away
 And drank to all the days
 That we had whiled away
 Just playin' Robin Hood, a little out of phase
 And then the nightmares come
 And you get blown away
 And up in your room your walls are cold
 You find your head is holdin' out
 For the welcome of a better day
 Then the nightmares come
 And you get blown away
 And up in your room your walls are getting colder
 Like you're gettin' on a roller-coaster
 You can't find the breaks
 Stevie burned the sky when he flew away
 And left us things to say
 When all the world was fallin' down
 Around our shoulders, cold and grey
 Harry carried on in his usual way
 And Minnie went inside
 He came out once and we both cried
 And Minnie blew my head away
 And then the nightmares come
 And you get blown away
 And up in your room your walls are cold
 You find your head is holdin' out
 For the welcome of a better day
 Then the nightmares come
 And you get blown away
 And up in your room your walls are gettin' colder
 Like you're gettin' on a roller-coaster
 You can't find the breaks
 When you're givin' everything away
 Everybody lets you pay
 You're savin' up for a better day
 Seein' things in a better way
 When you know you've got to live
 There's nothing you won't give
 To hear the phone and not let it ring
 Every Monday mornin'

 Shughie found love and he almost cried
 We laughed and wondered why
 We loved the sky and found the space
 And gazed out over Stevie's plane
 And then the nightmares come
 When your friends go away
 And up in your room your walls are cold
 You find your head is holdin' out
 For the welcome of a better day
 Then the nightmares come
 And you get blown away
 And up in your room your walls are gettin' colder
 Like you're gettin' on a roller-coaster
 You can't find the breaks
 Then the nightmares come
