about

The tune is a hooky - yet moody, ethereal ear-worm that washes over the listener.
The wistful musical and lyrical imagery sets the tone and scene for 2 people with similar pasts, on the same literal and figurative journey - knowing that being "better than before" can be a relative thing...

lyrics

"Better Than Before"

the moon was full
the air was thick
hazy streetlights
late-night morning mist
trying to remember
what led him up to this
trying hard to remember
the things he shouldn't miss...

they headed east
an hour past the lake
he said - don't it seem strange
this path we try to take
now I can dream
the dreams that came before
he said - I'm having these dreams
of those who came before

but I think I'm feeling better
Better Than Before
I think I'm feeling better
Better Than Before
I might be feeling
Better Than Before
I know I'm feeling better
Better Than Before

the moon was bright
the air was still
morning light - rising
just above the hill
now you can dream
the dreams of those before
she said
I have the dreams
of those who wanted more
and I know that I'll be better
Better Than Before
I know I can be better
Better Than Before

the moon was bright
the air was thick...
