Paula Cole - I Don't Want To Wait lyrics
Your rating:
So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the peace in every eye She had two babies One was six months, one was three In the war of '44 Every telephone ring Every heartbeat stinging When she thought it was God calling her Oh, would her son grow to know his father? I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be sorry? He showed up all wet On the rainy front step Wearing shrapnel in his skin And the war he saw Lives inside him still It's so hard to be gentle and warm The years pass by and now he has granddaughters I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be Oh, so breathe a little more deeply All we have is this very moment And I don't wanna do what his father and his father and his father did I wanna be here now So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the peace in every eye I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over I want to know right now what will it be I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over Will it be yes or will it be sorry? So open up your morning light And say a little prayer for I You know that if we are to stay alive Then see the love in every eye
