lyrics

I fought the news and coped with stress
Got down on my luck and crawled in to bed.
But oh, I'm glad I had you there
in the midst of such a terrible mess.

"It could always be worse". you whisper to me, so softly, "I know it hurts getting older".
"It could always be worse". you whisper to me, so softly, "I know there's a silver lining at the bottom".

Played these sad songs over in my head
There seemed no solution, it was failure at best
But oh, I'm glad I had you there
in the midst of such a terrible mess.

"It could always be worse". you whisper to me, so softly, "I know it hurts getting older".
"It could always be worse". you whisper to me, so softly, "I know there's a silver lining at the bottom".

I know there's a silver lining at the bottom
I'll return the favor, solve your problems.

We all fall down in times not our best
Get down on our luck, and hang our heads.
But rest my friend, for there's hope for you yet
It's part of time on the Earth...
It could always be worse...
