Better Days
Giovannie and the Hired Guns Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Well the door slams
He′s walkin' in, she′s pointing
Fingers askin'
Where the hell have you been
Getting louder, exchanging words,
He's getting nervous
′Bout the lipstick stain
She found on his shirt
And she ran outside,
Got in her car and left

Now she′s runnin' stop
Signs, yellin′ at the moonlight,
Second guessin' her mistakes
She says there′s gotta be a better
Way, yes there's got to be better
Days

Now she′s happier, she's runnin'
Wild, she′s dancin′ in her dress
Across the living room, without him
Now they're happier together
Forever they′re wonderin' how in
The hell they both got here well
In the end and they ran outside,
Got in their car and left

Now they′re runnin' stop signs,
Yellin′ at the moonlight, second
Guessin' their mistakes and they
Say there's gotta be a better way,
Yes there′s got to be better days

Won′t you take your time on love,
You got to be smart, got to realize
If it's love

Now they′re runnin' stop signs,
Yellin′ at the moonlight, second
Guessin' their mistakes
And they say there′s gotta be a
Better way, yes there's got to be
Now they're runnin′ stop signs,
Yellin′ at the moonlight, second
Guessin' their mistakes
And they say they′ve finally




Found a better way
Yes we finally found better days
