Excerpt:

I know that there’ll be a better day

When the clouds break and the sun shines my way

When all my troubles are kept at bay…

But that day is not today

 

I know that better times are ahead

When I will feel like getting out of bed

When my body wont weigh so heavy like lead…

But for now those are just words to be said

 

I know there will be a better time

When I wont spend my life living on a dime

And every moment I’ll be feeling fine…

But of “better days” I have seen no sign

 

I know that there are battles to be won

Like a stroll on the beach in the bright hot sun

Or going shopping with my daughters and having some fun…

But of victories I have not seen a single one

 

But still I keep pressing on each day

Hoping a cure will come my way

And all that happened in my adversity….

Will one day be just a sad memeory

 

So here’s to “better days” ahead

For all of us whose lives are led

By the hope that all the dreams that be…

WILL ONE DAY BE REALITY!
