eddie vedder demiş ki zamanında:

"i feel part of the universe open up to meet me
my emotion so submerged, broken down to kneel in
once listening, the voices they came
had to somehow greet myself, read myself
heard vibrations within my cells, in my cells
singing "aaah aaaah aaaah aaaaaah"

my love is safe for the universe
see me now, i'm bursting
on one planet, so many turns
different worlds
singing "aaah aaaah aaaah aaaaaah"

fill my heart with discipline
put there for the teaching
in my head see clouds of stairs
help me as i'm reaching
the future's paved with better days

not running from something
i'm running towards the day
wide awake anekatips
a whisper once quiet, now rising to a scream
right in me
i'm falling, free falling, words calling me
up off my knees
i'm soaring and, darling,
you'll be the one that i can need
still be free

our future's paved with better days"

öyle söylemiş işte.

the dirges imzalı haydi gel içelim temalı pek keyifli şarkı.

you, my friend, must realize
the time we have won't last
you can't erase the past
lord knows i've tried
there are times i've been weighed down
black and blue inside me
old wounds still residing
beneath my skin

so let's raise a glass
to better days
forget the past
and our wicked ways
just let me sing
this one last song
and make this feeling last
all night long

a fresh start is what you need
so let's begin again
i will be your friend
from this day on
you can rely upon me
if you ever need to
i will help you get through
and find your way

so let's raise a glass
to better days
forget the past
and our wicked ways
let's sing together
this one last song
and make this feelin' last
all night long

forgive yourself
know all is well
dust yourself off
and tell your blues
to go to hell

so let's raise a glass
to better days
forget the past
and our wicked ways
let me just sing
this one last song
and make this feeling last
all night long

bir amos lee sarkisi. filadelfiya sehir merkezinden, tahminen sevgilinin oturdugu taraflarda bi yerden soyluyor (ben ezginin o civarlardan geldigini duyar gibiyim en azindan. azicik umudumuz var. ellesmeyin) yalniz fazla yaklasmasin benimkine, agzini burnunu kirarim yeminle.

the darkness has always been,
the world was born into a blanket of sin,
when all the faith's been gone,
still we found a reason to carry on,
through the worrry, worry, worry,
caught in an endless maze
oh when the lights go out,
all i can think about,
is how, we've seen better days...

oh lover lately i've been thinkin i might leave you,
as you're surrounded by these fools who do decieve you,
yes our past is wretched true,
but i'm still in love with you,
thats why i am still refusin to give in to
all this worry, worry, worry
caught in an endless maze,
but when the lights go out,
all i can think about,
is how, we've seen better days

where do we go from here,
while we're all so consumed by feer,
why im trying not to be suspiscious of those im suspicious of,
i'm tryin to crackopen this angry heart and find a little love,
still i worry, worry, worry,
caught in an endless maze,
still when the lights go out,
all that i can think about is how we've seen better days,

oh when the lights go out,
all i can dream about,
is how, we've seen better days...

farryl purkiss'in insanın ruhunda su gibi akıp giden şarkısı. aurgasm projesi adı altında beleşe dinleyip, indirebilirsiniz. 2008'den beri ara ara dinler, dinlenirim. tat olarak james blunt'ın hafif akustik halidir. bence başarılı.

klibi çok hoş olan bir supertramp şarkısı.

trust me, i can help you
feel free, we can save you
join us in the good life
and better days, better days

campaign for a new life
champagne and the bright lights
make way for the right way
and better days, better days

you didn't realize about the other life that we can give you
we'll open up your eyes and make you see the light that's all around you
we'll help you work it out and then you'll never doubt
our intuition, our vision, our decision, our mission, so listen

no war, no inflation
no more desperation
you'll see we can show you
better days, better days

more food, higher wages
good schools, smiling faces
make way for the new way
better days, better days

we're going to lead you down to where the sun is always brightly shining
we'll push away the clouds and show you there's a gold and silver lining
we'll take away the pain, you'll want to try again
you won't be sorry, so don't worry, don't worry, so hurry and join me

sözleri:

güzel mi güzel bir dianne reeves şarkısı.

silver gray hair neatly combed in place
there were four generations of love on her face
she was so wise, no surprise passed her eyes
she'd seen it all

i was a child, oh, about three or four
all day i'd ask questions
at night i'd ask more
but whenever, she never would ever turn me away

i'd say, "how can ı be sure what is right or wrong?
and why does what i want always take so long?
please tell me where does god live
and why won't he talk to me?"

i'd say, "grandma what is love?
will i ever find out?
why are we so poor, what is life about?
i wanna know the answers before i fall off to sleep"

she sort of smiled as she tucked me in
then she pulled up that old rockin' chair once again
but tonight she was slightly, remarkably
different somehow

slowly she rocked, lookin' half asleep
grandma yawned as she stretched
then she started to speak
what she told me would mold me and hold me together inside

she said, "all the things you ask you will know someday
but you have got to live in a patient way
god put us here by fate
and by fate that means better days"

she said, "child we all are moons in the dark of night
ain't no morning gonna come 'til the time is right
can't get to better days lest you make it through the night
you gotta make it through the night, yes you do"

you can't get to no better days
unless you make it through the night
oh, you will see those better days
but you gotta be patient
be patient oh baby, be patient

later that year at the turn of spring
heaven sent angels down and gave grandma her wings
now she's flying and sliding and gliding
ın better days

and although ı'm all grown up
ı still get confused
ı stumble through the dark
getting bumped and bruised

when night gets in my way
ı could still hear my grandma say
ı can hear her say
ı can hear her say

"be patient, be patient"
"you can't get to no better days
unless you make it through the night baby
oh, you will see those better days"
"be patient, be patient"
"but you gotta be patient
child, do you hear me, yeah?"

"be patient, be patient"
"you can't get to no better days
unless you make it, you got to make it
you got to make it
you got to make it through the night"

("be patient, be patient")
oh grandma, oh grandma
do you see me now, lady?
oh oh oh oh oh

"be patient, be patient"
she used to sit me on her knee
she used to comb my hair
she used to tell me stories
my grandma took me everywhere

tq şarkısı...

in the morning when i wake up i think about
all the crazy things that we've been through
and my mama she told me there were gonna be days like this
and i guarantee she was tellin' the truth
when i close my eyes i see eazy
no more thuggin' just love everyday
in the heavens above with its dj
listening to music that i just made hey

(chorus)
just wanna sing a little something for the
people that done passed away
now tell me can you feel it - when you're
livin in better days
and i pray to god i hope he's listening if we
try that we could one day be
for one time in your mind everything is alright
but until it happens i'll be on my knees praying
for a better way

and my background say...
every once and a while i remember that i miss
my grand daddy
all the little things we sat and talked about - i wish you
can see me now
from the side of my bed with my head down
to outside with my homies tippin gin now
seems like i gotta whole lotta friends now
so let me tell you what i'm talking about
and now that i've got my mind made up
aint got no time to wait up
so i'm a keep givin you wait up
if you ever should think i aint true to that
in "my peoples if you wit me where you at"
we brought y'all back!

kaybedenler ozanı bruce springsteen'den arada çıkan umut şarkılarından biri. patron thunder road’dan mary seslenirmiş edasında sevdiği kadına güzel günlerin geldiğini haykırıyor.
sözleri ise şöyle

well my soul checked out missing as i sat listening
to the hours and minutes tickin’ away
yeah, just sittin’ around waitin’ for my life to begin
while it was all just slippin’ away.
i’m tired of waitin’ for tomorrow to come
or that train to come roarin’ ’round the bend.
i got a new suit of clothes a pretty red rose
and a woman i can call my friend

these are better days baby
yeah there’s better days shining through
these are better days baby
better days with a girl like you

well i took a piss at fortune’s sweet kiss
it’s like eatin’ caviar and dirt
it’s a sad funny ending to find yourself pretending
a rich man in a poor man’s shirt
now my ass was draggin’ when from a passin’ gypsy wagon
your heart like a diamond shone
tonight i’m layin’ in your arms carvin’ lucky charms
out of these heard luck bones

these are better days baby
these are better days it’s true
these are better days
there’s better days shining through

now a life of leisure and a pirate’s treasure
don’t make much for tragedy
but it’s a sad man my friend who’s livin’ in his own skin
and can’t stand the company
every fool’s got a reason to feelin’ sorry for himself
and turn his heart to stone
tonight this fool’s halfway to heaven and just a mile outta hell
and i feel like i’m comin’ home

these are better days baby
there’s better days shining through
these are better days
better days with a girl like you

these are better days baby
these are better days it’s true
these are better days
better days are shining through
