[Verse 1]
Yeah, there were times when I was lonely
And I lay here like a ghost upon my bed
I never thought about my friends
I never called up anyone
I was happy hiding out inside my head
But then you came along
And loved me all up
First you calmed me down
And then you took my hand
And as we lay under the sky
And watched the planes go by
Well, I knew I'd never be the same again

[Pre-Chorus]
Slow down, I want to go with you
Can't we wait here a while?
And I'll watch you smile
And we'll hide away
And let all the world go by

[Chorus]
And no reasons why
We sit and count the tears we cry
It's always getting better
It's always getting better
Leave the lonely days
Close your eyes, let them drift away
It's always getting better
It's always getting better
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
I have thought about your leaving for a long time now
And I guess that in the end, I'll be alright
But the blackness of your hair
The way your smile hits me everywhere
These are the things that come to me at night

[Pre-Chorus]
Slow down, I want to go with you
Can't we wait here a while?
And I'll watch you smile
And we'll hide away
And let all the world go by

[Chorus]
And no reasons why
We sit and count the tears we cry
It's always getting better
It's always getting better
Leave the lonely days
Close your eyes, let them drift away
It's always getting better
It's always getting better
And lie die again
Watch the moonlight streaming in
It's always getting better
It's always getting better
