It's just been one of those days
When nothing seems to be going right
And no ones there to lend a helping hand
Just an ordinary day

When it all seems like a fight
Just to make it to the promise land
Tell me how do you keep yourself from fallin
In the midst of all your doubts and all your fears

Tell me how do you keep yourself from drownin
And how do you find the strength to persevere
'Cause the sun is shining on my face
And I know that things will be ok

Its gonna be better than yesterday today
And tomorrow will be better than today
I can see the dawning of a brand new way
It's gonna be better than yesterday today

It's gonna be ok
Teardrops slowly fall from my eyes as I look to the sky
And I question how come life keeps passing me right on by
I just wonder why I can't escape is this my fate

To always be unhappy and how much longer must I wait
Tell me how do you keep yourself from fallin
In the midst of all your doubts and all your fears
Tell me how do you keep yourself from drownin

And how do you find the strength to persevere
'Cause the sun is shining on my face
And I know that things will be ok
It's gonna be better than yesterday today

And tomorrow will be better than today
I can see the dawning of a brand new way
It's gonna be better than yesterday today
It's gonna be ok

One day I know that I
Will truly find peace of mind
Happiness is not far away
Just around the corner comes

A sight of hope to release me from
My chains and set me free
Free so I can breathe

How do you keep yourself from fallin
How do you keep yourself from drowning
'Cause the sun is shining on my face
And I know that things will be ok

It's gonna be better than yesterday today
And tomorrow will be better than today
I can see the dawning of a brand new way
It's gonna be better than yesterday today
It's gonna be ok
