Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Listen to the sound of the rolling thunder
Lightning all around as I run for cover
Back to you
You pull me through
[Verse 2]
The clouds up ahead and they start to clear
I see my past in the rearview mirror
Yeah, I paid my debts
I got no regrets
[Verse 3]
We jumped into the river of life
Never looked back, never thought twice
Thought we had it made
Now I'm so amazed
These are the better days
[Verse 4]
I've been drivin all night
Through the pouring rain
Thinking about all the mistakes I made
I was so in pain
Everyday
[Verse 5]
I was so far down, there was no doubt
I had one foot in and one foot out
I was so alone
Till you carried me home
We jumped into the river of life
Never looked back, never thought twice
Thought we had it made
Now I'm so amazed
These are the better days
[Verse 6]
When the waters started to rise, all around us
Baby, you were fearless, so fearless
[Verse 7]
We jumped into the river of life
Never looked back, never thought twice
Thought we had it made
Now I'm so amazed
These are the better days
[Verse 8]
These are the better days
The better days
These are the better days
The better days
