There Must Be A Better World Somewhere (feat. WDR Big Band) Lyrics


Dr. John There Must Be A Better World Somewhere (feat. WDR Big Band)


Sometimes, I wonder just what I am fighting for
I win some battles but I always lose the war
I keep right on stumblin' in this no man's land out there
But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Flying high, some joker clips my wings
Just 'cause he gets his kicks and he's doing those kind of things
Keep on fallin' into space, either hangin' in mid-air
But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Every woman I want only wants herself
Everybody I love, loves somebody else
Yeah, every woman got a license to break my heart
And every love affair is over, before it gets a chance to start

If it ain't here, maybe in the year after
Instead of tears, I'll learn all about laughter
Meanwhile, I'm stuck out here, Lord knows it just ain't fair
But I know, yes, I know that there must be a better world somewhere

Every woman I want only wants herself
Everybody I love, loves somebody else
Every woman I know got a license to break my heart
And every love affair is over before it gets a chance to start

If it ain't here, maybe in the year after
Instead of tears, I'll learn all about laughter
Meanwhile, I'm stuck out here, Lord knows it just ain't fair
But I know, yes, I know, hey, I know
That there must be a better world, there sure gotta be a better world
Lord, now there must be a better world somewhere
