[Intro]
2
So open up your morning light,
3
And say a little prayer for I
4
You know that if we are to stay alive
5
Then see the peace in every eye...
6
[Verse 1]
7
She had two babies, one was six months, one was three
8
In the war of '44...
9
Every telephone ring, every heartbeat stinging
10
When she thought it was God calling her
11
[Pre-Chorus]
12
Oh, would her son grow to know his father?
13
[Chorus]
14
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
15
I want to know right now what will it be
16
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
17
Will it be yes or will it be...
18
Sorry... !
19
[Verse 2]
20
He showed up all wet on the rainy front step
21
Wearing shrapnel in his skin
22
And the war he saw live inside him still,
23
It's so hard to be gentle and warm
24
The years pass by and now he has granddaughters
25
[Chorus]
26
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
27
I want to know right now what will it be
28
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
29
Will it be yes or will it be...
30
[Verse 3]
31
So look at me from across the room
32
You're wearing your anguish again
33
Believe me I know the feeling
34
It sucks you into the jaws of anger
35
So breathe a little more deeply
36
All we have is this very moment
37
And I don't want to do what his father,
38
And his father, and his father did,
39
I want to be here now
40
[Bridge]
41
So open up your morning light,
42
And say a little prayer for I
43
You know that if we are to stay alive,
44
Then see the peace in every eye...
45
[Chorus]
46
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
47
I want to know right now what will it be
48
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
49
Will it be yes or will it be...
50
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
51
I want to know right now what will it be
52
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
53
Will it be yes or will it be... Sorry?
54
[Outro]
55
So open up your morning light,
56
And say a little prayer for right
57
You know that if we are to stay alive,
58
Then see the love in every eye...
