Better Things - The Kinks cover

circa 2005

Here's wishing you the bluest sky
And hoping something better comes tomorrow
Hoping all the verses rhyme
And the very best of choruses to
Swallow all the doubt and sadness
I know that better things are on their way

Here's hoping all the days ahead
Won't be as bitter as the ones behind you
Be an optimist instead
And somehow happiness will find you
Forget what happened yesterday
I know that better things are on their way

It's really good to see you rockin' out and having fun
Living like you've just begun
Accept your life for what it brings
I hope tomorrow you'll find better things
I know tomorrow you'll find better things

Here's wishing you the bluest sky
And hoping something better comes tomorrow
Hoping all the verses rhyme
And the very best of choruses to
Follow all the doubt and sadness
I know that better things are on their way

I know you got a lot of good things happening up ahead
The past is done it's all been said
So here's to what the future brings
I know tomorrow you'll find better things

This is the most interesting Kinks cover I have come across.

I applaud you for your arrangement, really do. The lyrics have a

sense of irony to them, "Here's wishing you the bluest sky,and hoping something better comes tomorrow. Hoping all the verses rhyme, and the very

best of choruses too".......this is something that someone might express--not because they are close to someone, but perhaps they are far apart, although wishing it wasn't so.

Your version captured this perfectly, cheers.
