Lyrics
For the better
coming home for the holidays
seems like years I've been away
and oh I can hardly wait
to see your face and feel your arms around me
you're the one who brought me here
gave me the life that I hold so dear
and I believe my greatest fear
would be to live without your love
I've been trying to get my life together
steadfast through stormy weather I've changed
but only for the better
I was such a restless child
wanted to break away and just run wild
it's taken years but now I've let go
and all I have to say is I love you so
let's just live for the day we have
we'll take each moment and make it last
there's no need to worry about the past
I have you now and that's all that matters
I've been trying to get my life together
steadfast through stormy weather I've changed
but only for the better
