Somewhere on a Saturday morning
There's a girl in a window
Watching people passing by
As she clutches on her aching heart
She's a sweet coffee sipper
Since life has been so bitter
She's learning how to live without the man who gave up on her now
Love let her down
I need the band, I need the band, hmm
Somewhere in the traffic on Bond Street
A middle-aged man is driving his van
He's been awful low of late
But he'll never show his mates
He's a man's man
Working like a dog
A pile of bills to pay
The last lonely pint at the bar
Will be the highlight of his day
And every day's the same
Still, he must believe
Happier times ahead
Life is not fair
Life can be hard
But we only get one
Whatever may come
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend
There will be happier times again
Somewhere in the middle of England
Auntie Jean is up crying again
After sixty years of marriage
Her Roger has left her alone in the land of the living
Ooh, she's cried a hundred seas
No one understands
The only one who'd get it
Isn't here anymore to hold her hand
Oh, oh, hand
Still, she must believe
Happier times ahead
Life is not fair
Life can be hard
But we only get one
Whatever may come
Find a little faith to hold on, my friend
There will be happier times again
It can't rain
Forever
Oh, ever
I don't know how
I don't know when
I don't know how or when
I don't, I don't
There must be happier
There must be happier
There must be happier times again
Repeat after me
Happier times ahead
May you be loved
And may you feel joy
May you know peace that surpasses all understanding
I wish you this
And as I said
There will be happier times again
Happier, happier, happier
There must be happier
Happier times
Are coming, don't you give up, just hold on
Happier times are coming, alright? The sun exists behind the clouds
It's right there, just hold onto happier times, alright, darling
