On a rainy night in Croydon We’d all meet up for the groove And we would wind up in the Oval Planning our next move Come on let’s play it tight If you could you play all night Until the morning comes around I know your happy place Is anywhere that you can play We stuck at it through thick and thin From Canning Town to East Berlin But now the music’s stopped And the bar is calling time But didn’t we have a real good time? On a rainy night in Croydon On the streets you made your home Well I know there’s something happening ‘Cos you brought your saxophone Come on let’s play it tight If you could you play all night Until the morning comes around I know your happy place Is anywhere that you can play On any scale in any key From Addiscombe to Coventry But now the music’s stopped And the bar is calling time But didn’t we have a real good time? You made a happy place Out of everywhere that you showed your face And wherever you are now I know you’re playing loud and proud And though the music’s stopped And the bar has called it time We know we had a real good time

Feels like the sky’s descending And rats are scratching at the door Head’s buzzing like a broken radio Can’t take it anymore But I'm not letting go Cos there's a light approaching Let’s hope it’s not another train And if I get knocked down I'm not broken I'm Just a little dazed I'll get back on my feet And bring you better days Yeah I'll bring you better days I'll bring you better days I'll bring you better days We laughed before the storms came Basked in the calm before the rains But when the heavens opened We tore apart again But I won’t let you go Cos there’s a bright horizon I know it’s gonna be OK And when I get knocked down Well I'm not beaten I'm Just a little dazed I'll get back on my feet And bring you better days Yeah I'll bring you better days I'll bring you better days I’ll make it better I can’t bear to walk away alone And face a life without the tenderness we’ve shown And I love you more than words can say I’ll keep the wolves at bay I’ll be the one to bring you better days I’ll bring you better days I’ll bring you better days I’ll make it better I really want to bring you better days
