Somewhere on a Saturday morning There's a girl in a window (Girl in a window) Watching people passing by As she clutches on her aching heart (On her aching heart) She's a sweet coffee sipper Since life has been so bitter She's learning how to live without the man who gave up on her now Love let her down I need the band, I need the band, hmm Somewhere in the traffic on Bond Street A middle-aged man is driving his van He's been awful low of late But he'll never show his mates He's a man's man Working like a dog A pile of bills to pay The last lonely pint at the bar Will be the highlight of his day And every day's the same Still, he must believe Happier times ahead Life is not fair Life can be hard But we only get one Whatever may come Find a little faith to hold on, my friend There will be happier times again Somewhere in the middle of England Auntie Jean is up crying again After sixty years of marriage Her Roger has left her alone in the land of the living Ooh, she's cried a hundred seas No one understands The only one who'd get it Isn't here anymore to hold her hand Oh, oh, hand Still, she must believe Happier times ahead Life is not fair Life can be hard But we only get one Whatever may come Find a little faith to hold on, my friend There will be happier times again It can't rain Forever Oh, ever I don't know how I don't know when I don't know how or when I don't, I don't There must be happier There must be happier There must be happier times again Repeat after me Happier times ahead May you be loved And may you feel joy May you know peace that surpasses all understanding I wish you this And as I said There will be happier times again (Happier times ahead) Happier, happier, happier There must be happier Happier times Are coming, don't you give up, just hold on Happier times are coming, alright? The sun exists behind the clouds It's right there, just hold onto happier times, alright, darling
