Lyric A Better Day Is Coming
(T. B. Schmit/W. Jennings/B. Gaitsch)
Yesterday I walked a mean street
Looking for a long lost heart beat
Came upon a poor music man just singing
God brought it all together
How we used to play forever
I felt every song I ve sung come ringing
You know it s been so long since I felt it in my soul
But from this day on my life is on a roll
If someone stands up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
I came home and shared my feeling
You said there s a new world stealing
Open up and let the light just fill us
You know it s been so long since we felt it in our soul
But from this day on our life is on a roll
If we all stand up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
There s a world unseen though we know it very well
Where there s harmony that no one can buy and sell
When our voices rise in the innocence of song
Then a better day is coming
We held on through some awful years
We can wait til our day appears
You know it s been so long since we felt it in our soul
But from this day on our life is on a roll
If we all stand up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
And in this broken world where we have so much to grieve
We must try so hard to believe what we believe
If we keep a dream of how good it all can be
Then a better day is coming
You know it s been so long since I felt it in my soul
But from this day on my life is on a roll
If someone stands up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
And in this world of grieving
We must try believing
If we keep our dreams
Then a better day is coming
A better day is coming
Brighter world is dawning
If we all stand up
Yesterday I walked a mean street
Looking for a long lost heart beat
Came upon a poor music man just singing
God brought it all together
How we used to play forever
I felt every song I ve sung come ringing
You know it s been so long since I felt it in my soul
But from this day on my life is on a roll
If someone stands up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
I came home and shared my feeling
You said there s a new world stealing
Open up and let the light just fill us
You know it s been so long since we felt it in our soul
But from this day on our life is on a roll
If we all stand up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
There s a world unseen though we know it very well
Where there s harmony that no one can buy and sell
When our voices rise in the innocence of song
Then a better day is coming
We held on through some awful years
We can wait til our day appears
You know it s been so long since we felt it in our soul
But from this day on our life is on a roll
If we all stand up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
And in this broken world where we have so much to grieve
We must try so hard to believe what we believe
If we keep a dream of how good it all can be
Then a better day is coming
You know it s been so long since I felt it in my soul
But from this day on my life is on a roll
If someone stands up just to let the spirit flow
Then a better day is coming
And in this world of grieving
We must try believing
If we keep our dreams
Then a better day is coming
A better day is coming
Brighter world is dawning
If we all stand up
