"Better Place (9.11)" lyrics - MICHELLE WILLIAMS

Let me tell you I appreciate
All the the love and strength you've shown
I know it's hard to keep a smile on your face
And nobody could ever take their place
Every mother, every sister and brother
Every child that's now gone
I know they're smiling looking down on your face
In a better place
I'll hear them say

Can't nobody hurt me
Can't nobody fade me
I'm resting in a better place
Can't nobody harm me
Can't nobody touch me
I'm resting in a better place

I'll keep standin' through the trials of life
Even if I stand alone
Through the times when I feel I can't go on
I feel a hand pushin' me upward
Sure I don't have no time for haters
This journey will be love
I'm in a much better state of mind
And this is where I'll stay
A better place

Can't nobody hurt me
Can't nobody fade me
I'm resting in a better place
Can't nobody harm me
Can't nobody touch me
I'm resting in a better place

Can't nobody hurt me
No more sorrows
I'm ok now (oh oh)
I'm resting in a better place
I miss you
I'm always in your heart
A better place

Can't nobody hurt me
Can't nobody fade me (I'm in a better place)
I'm resting in a better place
Can't nobody harm me (I'm in a better, better place)
Can't nobody touch me
I'm resting in a better place (in a better place)

Can't nobody hurt me
Can't nobody fade me (can't nobody hurt me)
I'm resting in a better place (I'm resting in a better place)
Can't nobody harm me
Can't nobody touch me (can't nobody touch me)
I'm resting in a better place

Where'd you go
