Joan Armatrading - Better Life Lyrics

All you want for everyone is a better life, a better life
All you want from love is the best love, the best love
And all you want from me is what I have to give
Just being who you are means a better life, a better life

Some people sit in their Ivory tower
With the Midas touch, the Midas youch
A kind word has more healing power
It's precious, more precious

Look inside yourself
Make your thoughts the best
All you have to be is a love junkie, love junkie

Change can heal the world
And all you gotta do is change yourself

There are rules for a better life
Don't live with hate, live positive
Smile a lot and the world looks good (smile a lot)
Your happy face looks right back at you

Don't compare yourself to everybody else
Live the life you love
For a better life, a better life

Change can heal the world
And all you gotta do is change yourself

Memories can last forever
Remember how short a life is
Plan how you will enjoy it
Be happy, be happy

Look inside yourself
Make your thoughts the best
All you have to be is a love junkie, love junkie

Don't compare yourself to everybody else
Live the life you love
For a better life, a better life

Look inside yourself
Make your thoughts the best
Just being who you are
Means a better life, a better life

Don't compare yourself to everybody else
Live the life you love
For a better life, a better life
