better days
and you ask me what I want this year
and I try to make this kind and clear
just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
cause I don't need boxes wrapped in strings
and desire and love and empty things
just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
so take these words and sing out loud
cause everyone is forgiven now
cause tonight's the night the world begins again
and it's someplace simple where we could live
and something only you can give
and that's faith and trust and peace while we're alive
and the one poor child that saved this world
and there's ten million more who probably could
if we all just stopped and said a prayer for them
so take these words and sing out loud
cause everyone is forgiven now
cause tonight's the night the world begins again
I wish everyone was loved tonight
and somehow stop this endless fight
just a chance that maybe we'll find better days
so take these words and sing out loud
cause everyone is forgiven now
cause tonight's the night the world begins again
cause tonight's the night the world begins again

I haven't heard that song before, but the words are awesome. I'm trying to figure out if it is a happy song or a sad one. Maybe its both.
Thanks... I love the song also. You should check it out. It's one of my new "favorites" and should be on my top 25 on iTunes shortly. :)
Right now it's just a single, not on a full-length CD, however.... their newest CD comes out April 25th and the song is on it. According to the reviews on the iTunes Music Store, it was kind of a response to the natural disasters that have been happening (read: Hurricane Katrina). The Goo Goo Dolls website (their biography) says that it was kind of just a call for the world to step back and reassess and forgive and try to be better. Regardless, it's got a good message and I really like it.
