Happier Times Ahead.
RAYELyrics of Happier Times Ahead. by RAYE
Verse
Somewhere on a Saturday morning, there′s a girl in a window (girl in a window)
Watching people passing by as she clutches on her aching heart (on her aching heart)
She's a sweet-coffee sipper since life has been so bitter
She′s learning how to live without the man who gave up on her
Now, love let her down
I need the band, I need the band, hm
Verse
Somewhere in the traffic on Bond Street, a middle-aged man
Was driving his van
He's been awful low of late, but he'll never show his mates
He′s a man′s man
Working like a dog, a pile of bills to pay
The last lonely pint at the bar will be the highlight of his day
And every day the same (still, still, still, still)
Chorus
Still, he must believe, happier times ahead
Life is not fair, life can be hard
But we only get one (we only get one), whatever may come (whatever may come)
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend
There will be happier times again
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Verse
Somewhere in the middle of England, Auntie Jean is up crying again
After 60 years of marriage, her Roger has left her alone in the land of the living
Ooh, she's cried a hundred seas, no one understands
The only one who′d get it isn't here anymore to hold her hand
Oh, oh, hand (oh, hand, oh, hand, oh, hand)
Chorus
Still, she must believe, happier times ahead
Life is not fair, life can be hard
But we only get one (we only get one), whatever may come (whatever may come)
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend
There will be happier times again (happier, happier, happier, happier)
Oh, yeah
Bridge
It can′t rain forever, oh, 'ever
I don′t know how, I, I don't know when
I don't know how or when
I don′t, I don′t
There must be happier, there must be happier
There must be happier times again
Chorus
Repeat after me, happier times ahead
May you be loved, and may you feel joy
May you know peace that surpasses all understanding
I wish you this, and as I said
There will be happier times again (happier times)
Hook
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, oh
Oh (yeah, yeah)
Happier, happier, happier, happier, happier, ah
There must be happier
Happier, happier, happier, happier, happier, ah
Na-na, na-na, na-na-na-na
There must be happier, happier, happier, happier, happier, ah
Da-da-da-da, da-da-da
Outro
Happier times are coming
Don't you give up, just hold on, happier times are coming, alright?
The sun exists behind the clouds, it′s right there
Just hold on to happier times, alright darling?
