《Better Days》歌词

[00:00:00] Better Days - Dianne Reeves (黛安·瑞芙)

[00:00:14] Silver gray hair

[00:00:17] Neatly combed in place

[00:00:20] There were four generations

[00:00:24] Of love on her face

[00:00:26] She was so wise

[00:00:29] No surprise passed her eyes

[00:00:34] She's seen it all

[00:00:42] I was a child oh

[00:00:45] About three or four

[00:00:48] All day I'd ask questions

[00:00:51] At night I'd ask more

[00:00:54] But whenever she never

[00:00:58] Would ever turn me away

[00:01:06] No no oh woah

[00:01:09] I'd say how can I be sure

[00:01:11] What is right or wrong

[00:01:12] And why does

[00:01:13] What I want

[00:01:14] Always take so long

[00:01:16] Please tell me

[00:01:17] Where does God live

[00:01:18] And why won't

[00:01:18] He talk to me

[00:01:22] I'd say Grandma

[00:01:23] What is love

[00:01:24] Will I ever find out

[00:01:25] Why are we so poor

[00:01:27] What is life about

[00:01:28] I wanna know the answers

[00:01:31] Before I fall off to sleep

[00:01:34] Woah ho woah ho

[00:01:39] She saw the smile

[00:01:41] As she tucked me in

[00:01:45] Then she pulled up that

[00:01:46] Old rockin' chair once again

[00:01:50] But tonight she was

[00:01:53] Slightly remarkably

[00:01:59] Different somehow

[00:02:06] Slowly she rocked

[00:02:09] Lookin' half asleep

[00:02:13] Grandma yawned

[00:02:14] As she stretched

[00:02:15] Then she started to speak

[00:02:18] What she told me

[00:02:21] Would mould me and hold me

[00:02:26] Together inside

[00:02:31] Yeah yeah yeah yeah

[00:02:34] She said all the things you ask

[00:02:36] You will know someday

[00:02:37] But you have got to live

[00:02:39] In a patient way

[00:02:40] God put us here by fate

[00:02:42] And by fate that means

[00:02:44] Better days

[00:02:46] She said child we are all

[00:02:49] Moons in the dark of night

[00:02:50] Ain't no mornings gonna come

[00:02:52] Till the time is right

[00:02:53] Can't get no better days lest

[00:02:55] You make it through the night

[00:02:59] You gotta make it

[00:03:00] Through the night

[00:03:01] Yes you do

[00:03:04] You can't get to no

[00:03:07] Better days

[00:03:09] Unless you make it

[00:03:11] Through the night

[00:03:15] Oh ho you will see

[00:03:18] Those better days

[00:03:21] But you gotta be patient

[00:03:26] Be patient oh baby

[00:03:31] Be patient

[00:03:36] Later that year at

[00:03:38] The turn of spring

[00:03:42] Heaven sent angels down

[00:03:44] And gave Grandma her wings

[00:03:47] Now she's flyin'

[00:03:50] And slidin' and glidin'

[00:03:55] In better days

[00:04:02] And although

[00:04:03] I'm all grown up

[00:04:05] I still get confused

[00:04:06] I stumble through the dark

[00:04:08] Getting bumped and bruised

[00:04:09] When night gets in my way

[00:04:11] I could still hear

[00:04:12] My Grandma say

[00:04:13] I can hear her say

[00:04:18] I can hear her sayin'

[00:04:20] You can't get to no

[00:04:23] Better days

[00:04:24] Unless you make it

[00:04:27] Through the night (baby)

[00:04:31] Oh ho you will see

[00:04:34] Those better days

[00:04:37] But you gotta be patient

[00:04:39] Child do you hear me yeah

[00:04:41] Well well well well well

[00:04:45] You can't get to no no

[00:04:48] Better days

[00:04:50] Unless you make it

[00:04:52] You got to make it

[00:04:54] You got to make it

[00:04:55] You got to make it

[00:04:56] Through the night

[00:05:05] Oh oh oh oh oh Oh
