She’s the real deal! No auto tune or sweetening. Just pure voice.
always cry when i hear this song
I know it's so personal. It's from real memories a lot of us have.
SHE SOUNDS GOOD.... NEEDED THIS
I love Dianne Reeves, this song has inspired so many Filipino artists, singing in all live venues in the 90’s, such as myself ❤️Thanks for your gift 🎁❤️
Streetlife, Strumms, and 19 East.
Heard this on the radio again. It still gave me the chills just like the first time I heard it back in the 80s. Back then while listening to the song, I kept imagining and wishing I had the kind of grandma that Diane Reeves described in her song. Flash forward 40 years after I realized that BETTER DAYS IS MY WISE GRANDMA. Listening to the song soothes the souls of people who were born into families that were given the challenge of growing up with problem parents and grandparents - what today's world labels as 'dysfunctional families.'From the bottom of my soul THANK YOU LORD FOR BLESSING DIANE REEVES with this wonderful message! Thank you DIANE REEVES for hearing God's call and making this creation come to life!
This song touch me in a special way. My grandmother passed when I was on active duty overseas. And, I was the only one in my family. Who didn't make it to her funeral. And, hearing this song the first time. Had me in tears.
Wow i remember back in the day when i played my music loud @ my mom's house 1 day i played this song my grandmother came to the door walker and all saying TURN IT UP miss you grandma
Honey, I'm sitting here listening to this with tears in my eyes, missing my mama and my grandma!
My mom passed away 2 months ago and my baby sister told me about this song. I never listened to it until tonight and I sit here Thanksgiving night, tears running down my face as I remember what a special mom she was. Thank you for beautifully delivering that beautiful ballad!
Mrs Reeves you have a beautiful soul. I'm just blessed to be able to hear you sing this song in my life time. It brings me memories and tears of joy.
This lady has many songs but this one , takes me back to grandmama's kitchen. Only grandmother's can hug like that !!!
2:30 you have GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!!!!
SAAAAAAAAANG GURL!!!!
This is what music is about!!!!
Give me this over ANYTHING you have these days!!!!
i was like what are they talking about and when I saw haw she did that note, I just lost it.. I really miss this type of REAL music
Jesus! Now that's a run.
She still sounds AMAZING!!!
A natural beauty, a wonderful singer, a Goddess...
I cried 😭 I felt it and I miss my grandma 😥
ALWAYS 💯💖 INCREDIBLE 🥰 THANK YOU, GODDESS 👑🙌🏾💓
Dianne Reeves is so talented and a great vocalist!
One of the most hard song to hit in karaokes but she did so easy haha yes because its her song
Tarantado hahaha
The voice quality and control is so good.
Silver gray hair
Neatly combed in place
There were four generations
Of love on her face
She was so wise
No surprise passed her eyes
She's seen it all
I was a child, oh
About three or four
All day I'd ask questions
At night I'd ask more
But whenever, she never
Would ever turn me away
No, no oh woah
I'd say how can I be sure
What is right or wrong
And why does
What I want
Always take so long
Please tell me
Where does God live
And why won't
He talk to me
I'd say Grandma
What is love
Will I ever find out
Why are we so poor
What is life about
I wanna know the answers
Before I fall off to sleep
Woah ho woah ho
She saw the smile
As she tucked me in
Then she pulled up that
Old rockin' chair once again
But tonight she was
Slightly, remarkably
Different somehow
Slowly she rocked
Lookin' half asleep
Grandma yawned
As she stretched
Then she started to speak
What she told me
Would mould me and holds me
Together inside
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
She said all the things you ask
You will know someday
But you have got to live
In a patient way
God put us here by fate
And by fate that means
Better days
She said, child we are all
Moons in the dark of night
Ain't no mornings gonna come
Till the time is right
Can't get no better days lest
You make it through the night
You gotta make it
Through the night
Yes you do
You can't get to no
Better days
Unless you make it
Through the night (baby)
Oh ho, you will see
Those better days
But you gotta be patient
Be patient, oh baby
Be patient
Later that year at
The turn of spring
Heaven sent angels down
And gave Grandma her wings
Now, she's flyin'
And slidin', and glidin'
In better days
And although
I'm all grown up
I still get confused
I stumble through the dark
Getting bumped and bruised
When night gets in my way
I could still hear
My Grandma say
I can hear her say
I can hear her sayin'
You can't get to no
Better days
Unless you make it
Through the night (baby)
Oh ho, you will see
Those better days
But you gotta be patient
Child, do you hear me, yeah
Well, well, well, well
You can't get to no, no
Better days
Unless you make it
You got to make it
You got to make it
Through the night
Oh Grandma, oh Grandma
Do you see me now, lady
Oh oh oh oh oh
y'all young people with mamas and grandmas, you better listen, else you will be sitting up crying like the most of us, saying I wished I would have listened, or could have said or talked differently !?!
Rommel Garcia
glad you copy the lyrics thanks
with all due respect the song is nice but the lyric that states grandma was given wings and flying, gliding is false she is sleep in the grave awaiting for judgement, that is the order of things her breath has left her body into the atmosphere .. you have a lovely singing voice
Thank you in Jesus name
*_She’s my idol since before. I really love her songs._*
OMG!!! Diana you are Queen!!❤
This is incredibly high quality video for the year 2000.

I would cry listening to this song on the album I had of hers years ago and this performance was even better than that! I love so much about her!
So talented and underrated ! Remember buying this Album in 87 88 I think it was.
Her angelic voice reminds me sometimes of the great Al Jarreau.

How could this have been filmed in 2000 video resolution quality is like HD... Great song her riffs n licks ....
Exactly!! I'd think more like 2010 or even 2009, goes to show just how long cutting edge technology has been around hiding from some of us
The best!
