Better Than It Was

Fastball

Once I had it all planned out 
My dirty fingers moved about 
To make a mess of everything around me 
I don't claim to know my way 
I still run in circles everyday 
Running around half blind 
Life can be unkind 
But it's better than it was 
It's better than it was 
I complain very little because 
It's better than it was 

I get to remembering 
We had a lot more money then 
To make a mess of everything around us 
Now the money comes and goes a bit faster 
Then my confidence grows 
Everybody knows 
There ain't nothing new about money woes 

But it's better than it was 
It's better than it was 
It's better than it was 
It's better than we ever could have 
Wished it to before 
It was bad a while ago 
Better this I know 

It's better than it was 
Better than it was 
I complain very little because 
It's better than it was 

Better than it was
