Better Way The other day, I met someone on my way, He was rough and rude and trying to be unkind. Well, I could tell something was wrong And he was trying to pass it on, But instead I smiled and said what's on your mind? Come on, let's just talk it out What you're down about 'Cause taking a frown and passing it round It won't solve a thing (won't solve a thing) But if I count you in And let you know that you got friends Maybe we'll find a better way to work it through (work it through) Here we go Now we've all had bad days (bad days) Where it never goes our way (our way) Where we're lonely, sad or maybe just left out Sometimes we send frustration To the wrong location But a friendly invitation might help out We're all looking at each other Like we're looking at a book cover We got to look inside to read what's going on So come on, let's just talk it out What you're down about Cause taking a frown and passing it round It won't solve a thing (won't solve a thing) But if I count you in And let you know that you got friends Maybe we'll find a better way to work it through (work it through) Can we count you in?
