Better Days Lyrics - Black Moon - Emerson, Lake & Palmer

(keith emerson/greg lake) 

I was walking on this station 

I could see somebody lying on a chair 

I went over to him 

I said, hey man, what are you doing there 

And have you got a smoke 

I said you'd better come in out of the rain 

Before you get yourself soaked 

No one can feel inside 

How deep the oceans, heartaches hide 

Chorus 

So stand on me, I'll catch you falling 

You can stand on me and I'll help you find a way 

Stand on me, I can see our ship turning 

Stand on me, we're sailing on the wind of better days 

And they accuse you when you're over and out 

Ulterior motives, that's what it's all about 

It's just human nature, they try to make you flinch 

But we're takin' the higher ground inch by inch 

No one cal feel inside 

How deep the oceans, heartaches hide 

Chorus 

And if you tumble when the snowflakes fall 

(this is a jungle, it's not a waterfall) 

From where you're standing you can't get no change 

They keep moving the target clean out of range
