Songtext If it's been a hard night Florrie

If it's been a hard night

She was the good kind
A curious wild child
She dreamt of the limelight
And everybody knew
But there was a dark side
That came with the hard times
And in the corners of her mind
It just grew and grew

Can't think straight at the best of times
Hearts beat fast, what a bad design
On lonely avenue, she's starting something new
Counting down as the days go on
Parts of her that she thought had gone
On lonely avenues, she's starting something new

And if it's been a hard night
She's dreaming of a past life
She's looking through the window
It's waiting right outside the door
She tells herself it's alright
Forget about the bad times
'Cause something keeps her holding on
She knows that better days will come

Those innocent wide eyes
Always looked on the bright side
She was stood on a goldmine
But searching for the truth
And it took a long time
To be handed a lifeline
And she whispered a goodbye
To everything she knew

Can't think straight at the best of times
Hearts beat fast, what a bad design
On lonely avenue, she's starting something new
Counting down as the days go on
Parts of her that she thought had gone
On lonely avenues, she's starting something new

And if it's been a hard night
She's dreaming of a past life
She's looking through the window
It's waiting right outside the door
She tells herself it's alright
Forget about the bad times
'Cause something keeps her holding on
She knows that better days will come

(She knows that better days will come)
('Cause something keeps her holding on)
(She knows that better days will come)
('Cause something keeps her holding on)
(And if it's been a lonely night)
(She's dreaming of a better life)
(And if it's been a lonely night)
(She's dreaming of a better life)

And if it's been a hard night
She's dreaming of a past life
She's looking through the window
It's waiting right outside the door
She tells herself it's alright
Forget about the bad times
'Cause something keeps her holding on
She knows that better days will come
