Bad Days

Composed by Melanie Bradley

[Verse 1]
Good morning started with a silent dawn
My wallet’s gone, just somewhere in the night
The coffee shop’s window, a more enchanting thing
But I have no change for anything, just a hungry sign at me

[Verse 2]
A silent, a whisper, a hollow, empty plea
And all the world is wishing fast, and does it wish see me?
I look the faces with a quiet, peaceful stare
And in my heart a little song, a simple, humble prayer

[Chorus]
Oh, but my love, the sun always rise
A different kind of strength is in our eyes
Yes, bad days are a river, but the river has to end
And your heart’s a garden, but the sun will finally tend
The sun will finally tend
It’s all gonna be alright, I promise, it’s true
And a brighter, better way is on its way to you

[Verse 3]
My jacket is a blanket from the cold and morning dew
Got no roof above me, (I’m sorry) but the gray and cloudy blue
The car I used to drive is a memory on the street
And all I’ve got are lonely miles and cold and weary feet
The rain is coming down now, a sad and mournful sound
And all I’ve got are empty pockets in this cold, broken ground
I see the homes and houses with a warm and gentle glow
And in my heart a quiet hope that my own might finally grow

[Chorus]
Oh, but my love
