This Friday’s song is “Better Days” by the Goo Goo Dolls. This song was released in September 2005. I don’t have a lot of “pop” songs in my music collection especially ones released after 2000. This one is because it really struck a chord with me when I first heard it. I was going through one of the most difficult periods and hardest fights of my life. I had a lot of nights that fall and winter when I almost gave up hope of prevailing. I would listen to this and realize that I had to hang on… I had to persevere no matter how hard things got… I had to pray for “just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days”…
I hope you enjoy “Better Days” by the Goo Goo Dolls.
And you asked me what I want this year
And I try to make this kind and clear
Just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days
‘Cause I don’t need boxes wrapped in strings
And designer love and empty things
Just a chance that maybe we’ll find better days
