Cameo - Better Days Lyrics






I like the way you make me feel
Honestly I do, I do
You make me cry every time you say goodbye, and the chances are
I'll never get to see you again, no
No one said life was easy, oh no
There's nothing I can do, but blow a kiss, and hope for better days.

Better days, oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah, better days
I like those better days
You like those better days, oh yeah

You know I'm going to try to persuade you, yeah
Cause without your lovin I can't make it, no I can't
Your personality blows my mind

Tell me why, you had to say goodbye
Do you know if I'll see you again, my friend
Better days, come show me the way
But for now, we'll blow a kiss and hope for better days

Better days, oh yeah
Oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah, better days
I like those better days
You like those better days, oh yeah

    This reminds me of all of brothers that use to work at the shoe shine parlor in the early 80's on a juke box in Memphis Tn. That place and this song kept us off the streets and money in our pockets. Hard work never killed nobody and this song takes me back over 40 years at least. Good times....damn good times.

    "Better Days" was actually on the "Feel Me" album, but your words still ring true about that good ol Cameo sound...the best to ever do it!

    T.... R....

    Tonie R. This was on the feel me album. They were cranking them out so fast though because in that year 1980 they also released the Cameosis album as well. Followed by Knights of the sound table in 1981 and then Alligator Women in 1982. Aphrodisiac in 83 I was stationed in Brooklyn and loving and living life.

  13. J.... P....

    CAMEO MADE THE BEST BALLADS BACK IN THE DAY. THEY COULD FOR SURE THROW DOWN,, BUT THEIR BALLADS R FANTASTIC

    B.... Q....

    Brad Query Yesss! And I have nearly everyone of their ballads. I remember my high school boyfriend broke up with me right after my graduation. He was a year older, away at college and thought I needed to experience my first year of college single. I was crushed, but a few months later, I received a letter from him telling me to listen to the lyrics of Cameo's new song, I'll Never Look for Love. Man, I called the NIght Grooves radio DJ and had him play it so that I could record it and listen to the lyrics. We got back together through a Cameo love song!

  17. A.... M....

    Cameo were before there time Great Song

  18. G.... H....

    R.... D....

    I feel you Roman Dobrev. I eat sleep and breath Cameo. Baddest group ever. Their music speaks to me and for me...Better Days...PEACE!!!!!

    R.... D....

    God Bless You ,Jerry ! :)

    R.... D....

    @Roman Dobrev Some would argue that Earth Wind and Fire is the best band.
    I would argue that Cameo's music would stand up head to head with them. Don't get me wrong I certainly would agree that EW&F is a great group/band. I've seen them countless times in concert. It's almost a toss up w/me. What's your take?

    R.... D....

    @Jerry Powell cameo

    R.... D....

    @Mark Balrak Agreed!!!!!
