When the walls come tumbling down
  And crumble at your knees.
  And you may even think it's over.
  Well have you ever seen the rain in the summertime?
  When darkness reigns to cover sunny skies
    [Chorus]
  I'll be waiting for better days
  I'll be waiting for you.
    You tried to hide your sorrow,
  With a painted smile.
  But in your eyes, you know
  I saw it all the while.
  Well life's no bed of roses,
  And now you know,
  You've got to see it through til tomorrow.
    [Repeat Chorus]
    You've seen better days before, I know.
  No one ever wants to feel so low.
    [Repeat Chorus]
