lyrics

Feeling like Lazarus
Raised up from the dead
Noticing better days
Better days ahead

Breathing new oxygen
Out here on the other side
The fog has finally lifted
And my tears can finally dry

‘Cause I’ve been waiting

For better days
Oh there’s got to be, got to be
Better days
No, there ain’t nothing in my way just
Better days
Together we can hold the key to
Better days
Oh I see
Better days for you and me


Feeling like King Louis
Face turned towards the sun
Noticing better days
Better days to come

Hearing new melodies
The music can transcend
My mourning’s turned to dancing
I feel like I can sing again

‘Cause I’ve been waiting

For better days
Oh there’s got to be, got to be
Better days
No, there ain’t nothing in my way just
Better days
Together we can hold the key to
Better days
Oh I see
Better days for you and me

‘Cause I’ve been waiting
You’ve been waiting
We’ve been waiting
Oh

Better days
Oh there’s got to be, got to be
Better days
No, there ain’t nothing in my way just
Better days
Together we can hold the key to
Better days
Oh I see
Better days for you and me

Yes I’m choosing to believe
There’s gonna be better days ahead for you and me

Leah Ashton Los Angeles, California

Leah Ashton, a Los Angeles based singer-songwriter with Midwestern roots, will be releasing her first full-length album, Late Bloomer, on September 9th.
