Brighter Days

If I live till I die, will I be justly rewarded If I sleep till I wake, will I remember the dream If I lie to myself, will I have something to believe in If I face my fears, will I know what they mean Long for brighter days far behind me Before my life was just a haze When love was still inside me If I find myself, tell me will I lose me to others If I hang my head, will I feel the spirit of my mother If I bury my face, will I uncover the truth If I slow my pace, will the past gain on me Long for brighter days far behind me Before my life was just a haze When love was still inside me Long for brighter days far behind me Before my life was just a haze When love was still inside me --- Brighter Days - Gov't Mule
