Verse 1:
Brother, lay your head down
Sister, don't you know?
Ain't no rest in worry
Troubles come, troubles go
I have seen the sparrow
I have watched her fly
No, she does not worry
Tell me why should I?
Chorus:
So hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know it's hard
Hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know they are
Interlude:
Du-du-du-du-du-du
Du-du-du-du-du
Du-du-du-du-du-du
Verse 2:
I have seen the lily dancing with the wind
Open to the sunshine
Open to the rain
Dressed in all her beauty
Given what she needs
If I listen closely
I can hear her sing to me
Chorus:
So hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know it's hard
Hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know they are
(Instrumental)
Chorus:
Hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know it's hard
Hold on, love
Things are gonna get better
Things are gonna get better
I know they are
(Instrumental)
Outro:
Du-du-du-du-du-du
Du-du-du-du-du
Du-du-du-du-du-du
