Always Getting Better - Blue Rodeo

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

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

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

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

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

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
