Baby, there's a war right outside our window
(Don't you hear the people fighting for their lives?)
Baby, there's a war right outside our window
But it's gon' be alright 'long as I got you with me...
In your arms, I find my shelter
Deep in your love, I will hide
Baby, you and me stop the world when we're together
You find a way to take my mind
Hoping for better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Need some better days
Hoping for better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Need some better days...
I can hear the sirens right outside our window
And I can hear the children crying while their mothers cry
I'm praying for the people right outside our window
Hoping they find peace at night, just like you and me
In your arms, I find my shelter
Deep in your love, I will hide
Baby, you and me stop the world when we're together
You find a way to take my mind
Hoping for better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Need some better days
Hoping for better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Need some better days
So how we gonna stop the violence, stop the hurting?
Stop the hatred, stop the murders
We're all human, that's for certain
Come together, we deserve it
What kind of life will our babies have
If we don't change up and make it last?
It starts right here, starts right now
We'll love and hope for
Better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Need some better days
Hoping for better days, better days
Days where things are better
Hoping for better days, better days
Good ol' better days
(Better days, oh, yeah, better)
