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.
