Better With God And Time

[Verse 1]
Coffee gone cold
Bills on the table
Doctor said "rest"
But I don’t feel able
Rain taps the window
Clock barely climbs
Still I whisper a thank you
For God and time
[Chorus]
Life gets better with God and time
Worn-out heart starts to beat back in line
Every scar
Every tear I cried
Turned into a road where the sun still shines
I was breaking
Shaking on the inside
Now I’m walking steady on the other side
Life gets better with God and time
God and time
[Verse 2]
Friends stopped calling
Phone stayed dark
Sat with my doubts
In a quiet parked car
But grace found the cracks
Where I’d drawn the line
Lit up the dashboard
Said
"You’ll be fine" (you’ll be fine)
[Chorus]
Life gets better with God and time
Worn-out heart starts to beat back in line
Every scar
Every tear I cried
Turned into a road where the sun still shines
I was breaking
Shaking on the inside
Now I’m walking steady on the other side
Life gets better with God and time
God and time
[Bridge]
I’ve cursed the waiting
Begged for a sign
But healing moves slow
Like an old church choir
Now I lean on mercy
Let the days unwind
Holding on
Holding on
To God and time (oh, God and time)
[Chorus]
Life gets better with God and time
Worn-out heart starts to beat back in line
Every scar
Every tear I cried
Turned into a road where the sun still shines
I was breaking
Shaking on the inside
Now I’m walking steady on the other side
Life gets better with God and time
Life gets better with God and time

Slow-burning blues-soul ballad with male vocals; brushed drums, warm Hammond organ, and a lazy electric guitar lick circling the groove. Verses stay intimate and low, bass walking gently; chorus swells with gospel-tinged backing vocals and piano chords. Final chorus pushes the vocal grit, then fades on a tender guitar fill and organ pad., blues, soul
