Story Behind The Song

Song Description

The song is basically my personal story as a cancer victim and survivor, with a positive message, to bring hope and encouragement to those affected by this devastating disease! In addition, I want to give something back to Roswell Park Cancer Center because I credit them for saving my life! I shall be forever grateful...100% of any and all proceeds generated will be donated to Roswell Park for cancer research...Roswell's research team is recognized and acclaimed worldwide, for their successful research and development of new treatment plans..

Lyrics

"BETTER DAYS ARE COMING"

WE TAKE SOME THINGS FOR GRANTED AS WE LIVE FROM DAY TO DAY
FEELIN' FINE, NEVER THOUGHT WE'D FIND, OURSELVES WITHIN HARM'S WAY
THEN WE HEAR THE SHOCKING NEWS THAT WILL CHANGE OUR LIVES FOREVER
WE ONLY HOPE FOR BETTER DAYS AHEAD FOR US TOGETHER.

I'VE SEEN THE SORROW
I CAN FEEL THE PAIN
I'VE LOST ALL HOPE
I WOULD EVER LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN
BUT THROUGH IT ALL
I'VE COME TO FIND
BETTER DAYS ARE COMING
DOWN THE LINE FOR US THIS TIME

CANCER IS A NIGHTMARE THAT IS SHARED BY ONE AND ALL
WE STAND TO FIGHT THE BATTLE WITH OUR BACKS AGAINST THE WALL
WE PUT OUR TRUST IN DOCTORS AND WE PRAY THEY GET IT RIGHT
AND WE NEVER WILL SURRENDER AS WE BATTLE FOR OUR LIFE

I'VE SEEN THE SORROW
I CAN FEEL THE PAIN
I'VE LOST ALL HOPE
I WOULD EVER LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN
BUT THROUGH IT ALL
I'VE COME TO FIND
BETTER DAYS ARE COMING
DOWN THE LINE FOR US THIS TIME

EVERY DAY'S A BLESSING, SO CHERISH EACH AND EVERY DAY
WE KNOW WE ARE THE LUCKY ONES WITH A SECOND CHANCE TO PLAY
NOW WE WON'T LOOK BACK AND WE DON'T BACK DOWN
AS WE LIVE TO FIGHT AGAIN IF IT COMES BACK AROUND

I'VE SEEN THE SORROW
I CAN FEEL THE PAIN
I'VE LOST ALL HOPE
I WOULD EVER LIVE MY LIFE AGAIN
BUT THROUGH IT ALL
I'VE COME TO FIND
BETTER DAYS ARE COMING
DOWN THE LINE FOR US THIS TIME
