Ready for the Times to Get Better

Ready for the Times to Get Better

by Allen Reynolds;

additional lyrics by Debra Milligan


I have to tell you

I’ve been racking my brain


Trying to find a way out

 

I’ve had enough of this

continual rain

 

Changes are coming

no doubt

 

It’s been a too long time

with no peace of mind

 

And I’m ready for the times

to get better.


You want from me

what I cannot give

 

I feel too lonesome

at times

 

I’ve got a dream

that I wish I could live

 

It’s burning holes

in my mind.

 

It’s been a too long time

with no peace of mind


I’m ready for the times

to get better.

 

I left you once,

now I’ve done it again

this time I’m not looking

back

 

I’m on my railroad

of unbreakable track

 

Changes are coming

no doubt

 

It’s been a too long time

with no peace of mind

 

I’m ready for the times

to get better.


There’s something wicked

at the break of each day

I ask the Lord for advice

 

I’m not holding back or running away

I’m working to turn the tide.

 

It’s been a too long time

with no peace of mind

 

I’m ready for the times

to get better

 

Yes, I’m ready for those times

to get better.
