Better way

There's got to be a better way
There's got to be a better way

When I see the pain
It makes me want to cry my life away
ee-yea-yea-ee-yea, cry my life away
And when I hear you say
All those lies all the day
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea,
I'm gonna cry my life away

la-la-la-la-la-la
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea
la-la-la-la-la-la
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea
la-la-la-la-la-la
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea
la-la-la-la-la-la
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea

There's got to be a better way
Let love live today
I know there's a better way
Let love live today
I know there's a better way
To live my life away
There's got to be a better way
Let love live today
I know there's a better way
Livin' and lovin' today

I see the birds fly away
Not even the Sun will stray
I keep wishing day by day
That I could fly away

And now the sky is turning black
Feel I'm turning on a loosing track
I just want to bring my lover back
To brighten up my day

la-la-la-la-la-la...

When I see the pain
It makes me want to cry my life away
ee-yea-yea-ee-yea, cry my life away
And when I hear you say
All those lies all the day
ee-yea-ee-yea-ee-yea, I'm gonna cry my life away

We've got to stop all this hatred
There's got to be a better way
We've got to stop all this war
Let's live and love today
We've got to stop all this killing
There's got to be a better way
We can do it if we're willing
So let's live and love today

There's got to be a better way
Let love live today
I know there's a better way
To live my life away
I know there's a better way
Let love live today
There's got to be a better way
Livin' and lovin' today

la-la-la-la-la-la...
