When Life Is Good Again

When life is good again

I'll be a better friend

A bigger person when

Life is good again

More thoughtful than I've been

I'll be so different then

More in the moment when

Life is good again

I'll open up my heart

And let the whole world in

I'll try to make amends

When life is good again

We've been brought to our knees

We've been so ill at ease

There are no guarantees

But you know life goes on

This too shall pass away

Bring new and different days

We need to change our ways

And right our wrongs

Let's open up our hearts

And let the whole world in

Let's try to make amends

When life is good again

I'll open up my doors again

And hear the message in the wind

Repent of all my sins (Hallelujah)

When life is good again

I'll try to be someone

On which you can depend

A helping hand to lend

Let's open up our eyes

To see what's goin' on

If we're to move along

From where we've been

Let's open up our hearts

And let the love shine in (shine in)

We've all got knees to bend

And we'll just pray till then

Ask God's forgiveness when

Life is good again

And it's gonna be good again

(It's gonna be)

(It's gonna be)

It's gonna be good again

It'll be alright

(It'll be alright)

God's the reason for all things

You want rainbows

You get rain

We'll all be forever changed (forever changed)

I'll sell my boat and fly my kite

Walk in the park

Go out at night

And hold my loved ones extra tight

When everything is on the mend

I'll even drink with my old friends

Sing and play my mandolin

We'll make it through this long dark night

Darkness fades when faced with light

But everything's gonna be alright

When life is good again
