Better Than a "Boo!" - Christian Borle, Jaxon Daniel & The Big One-Oh Ensemble

God loves a lullaby In a mother's tears in the dead of night Better than a Hallelujah sometimes God loves the drunkard's cry The soldier's plea not to let him die Better than a Hallelujah sometimes We pour out our miseries God just hears a melody Beautiful, the mess we are The honest cries of breaking hearts Are better than a Hallelujah The woman holding on for life The dying man giving up the fight Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes The tears of shame for what's been done The silence when the words won't come Are better than a Hallelujah sometimes We pour out our miseries God just hears a melody Beautiful, the mess we are The honest cries of breaking hearts Are better than a Hallelujah Better than a church bell ringing Better than a choir singing out, singing out We pour out our miseries God just hears a melody Beautiful, the mess we are The honest cries of breaking hearts Are better than a Hallelujah We pour out our miseries God just hears a melody Beautiful, the mess we are The honest cries of breaking hearts Are better than a Hallelujah (Better than a Hallelujah sometimes) Better than a Hallelujah (Better than a Hallelujah sometimes)

I used to dream myself To somewhere else each night I dreamed in color Caused i lived in black and white Until i chanced upon this road that led to you I could not see How anything could be Better than a dream Stranger than my wild imagination If this is a real sensation It's better than a dream Higher than the moon Hazy like a beautiful illusion Crazy and in confusion And better than a dream I used to wish I was beyond some distant door I knew there must be more to life And now I'm sure No dreams of pirate caves Or Indian braves Or magic carpets could Ever be this good Better than a dream Stranger than my wild imagination If this is a real sensation It's better than a dream Higher than the moon Hazy like a beautiful illusion Crazy and in confusion And better than a dream And better than a dream
