Better Days(Album Version)

Better Days (Album Version) - The Jayhawks

Took a walk down Paramount

(I've seen better days)

Left behind a friend of mine

(I've seen better days)

Passed by a statue of Saint Augustine in prayer

Said for one the only one

I turned my back at her

The elevator rose to the eleventh floor

(I've seen better days)

Her trenchcoat hangs inside her door

(I've seen better days)

A leaky window welcomed rain

And left me standing here

A black-haired girl who taught me truth

I turned my back on her

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Lay me down down down

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Better days

Made love in the Toronto rain

(I've seen better days)

From Hamilton I look the train

(I've seen better days)

\"What you regret\" you softly said

\"Are things you never do\"

I regret I didn't turn

And run back home to you

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Lay me down down down

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Better days

Better days

Now I stand in sympathy

Not for her but for me

I could have turned

I could have stayed

But I just walked away

I could have done a lot of things

In my better days

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Lay me down down down

Too late for hope but a dream remembered

Better days

Better days

Better days

Better days

Better days
