Testi Soundtracks :: H

I come from where the rivers meet the sea

That's part of why I'm so wild and fancy free

I was early into crazy ways

My folks said, "It's just a phase"

They were hoping for better days



Now in my line of work I seem to see a lot more than most

Write 'em down, pas 'em around

It's the gospel from the coast

Reflections, not just replays

Takin' time to escape the maze

Lookin' for better days



I spent a year of my life one night

On the beaches in old Beirut

Seems that all they're aimin' for there

Is to hang around and shoot

Each others' lives away

Bloody winds on a distant bay

They're lookin' for better days



Looking to the left, looking to the right

Looking to the stars to shed some light

Hoping for a breath, hoping for break

Hopin' for the give without the take



The dreamers line the state road

Just to watch the runway show

Slouched behind their steering wheels

They just watch the big jets go

Streakin' through the morning haze

Focal point of a distant gaze

Lookin' for better days



Pale invaders and tanned crusaders

Are worshipping the sun

On the corner of "walk" and "don't walk"

Somewhere on US 1

I'm back to livin' Floridays

Blue skies and ultra-violet rays

Lookin' for better days



I'm back to livin' Floridays

Blue skies and ultra-violet rays

Lookin' for better days, lookin' for better days

Lookin' for Floridays



Better days, better days

Everybody's lookin' for better days

Somewhere beneath the shining star

Better days, mon't you take me to better days

Better days, I sure could use a few better days

Floridays
