Music + Lyrics: It'll Get Better (Unreleased)

This is for Jeff and Larry Ray and Weston everyone who knows the pain of a friend moving away. Of quieter evenings. Of a little less laughter. Of things you once shared now being yours alone to enjoy and never in quite the fullness you enjoyed them with the friend you loved.

It'll get better.

Watch and listen now on YouTube.


It'll Get Better
By Abbye West Pates and Matthew Clark

It's a hard road to walk
With no friends to come along
You wake up in the morning
There's nobody to call

There's quiet you're not used to
A reminder that you used to
Call 'em up on a Friday
Laugh the hours away

But it'll get better
It'll be fine
I know it sounds simple
But all you need is time
You won't forget it
Your heart won't let it
It'll get better
Better with Time

I heard a joke you would like
Had to laugh to myself
'Cause no joke's half as funny
Without you here to tell

When you left this town friend
You took a part of me
Like a runaway memory
I gotta squint to see

But it'll get better 
It'll be fine 
I know it sounds simple 
But all you need is time 
You won't forget it 
Your heart won't let it 
It'll get better 
Better with Time

If I'm honest I'm afraid to move on
There's no friend quite like you
What I mean is I'm afraid that you'll move on, too...

I know it'll get better
I know it''ll be fine
You make it sound so simple

Guess I'll learn with time
I won't forget you
My heart won't let you
Go too far
No matter where you are
Oh, it'll get better
It'll get better
Better wtih time
It'll get better
Better with time
