Better Days - Christie

I’ll tell you something you didn’t know

I didn’t think you had the nerve to go

I must admit you took me by surprise

I’m wondering what I did to hurt your pride

Now I’m waiting for the sound of your

Footsteps at my door

I’m wondering how long you’ll be now

This time I’m not sure

I’m not sure

But long ago, far away

I can remember better days

Long ago, far away

Seems like a long, long time away

You won’t be there when I get home tonight

Maybe a letter to a friend I’ll write

Might even have myself a drink or two

To ease the pain each time I think of you

I guess you thought, this time you taught

Me how to behave

I broke the rules so you left school

Well, it’s such a shame, such a shame

But long ago, far away

I can remember better days

Long ago, far away

Seems like a long, long time away

I guess you thought, this time you taught

Me how to behave

I broke the rules so you left school

Well, it’s such a shame, such a shame

But long ago, far away

I can remember better days

Long ago, far away

Seems like a long, long time away
