PRE-CHORUS:
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?

CHORUS:
'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
It's gonna be ok, eventually

VERSE two:
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

PRE-CHORUS:
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?

CHORUS:
'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

BRIDGE:
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
the chains and set me free
Free so I can breathe

CHORUS two/ending:
(how do you keep yourself from fallin')
oh Lord, you'll let me go so I can breathe
( how do you keep yourself from drownin?)
I know it's not far away
My happiness is on the way

'Cause the sun is shining on my face
And I know that things will be ok
It's gonna be better than yesterday 

I know it's gonna be ok

Yesterday, today
doesn't seem so far away...
