I Dont Want to Wait — текст песни (Paula Cole)

So open up your morning light

And say a little prayer for i

You know that if we are to stay alive

And see the peace in every i



She had two babies

One was six months one was three

In the war of 44

Every telephone ring

Every heartbeat stinging

When thought it was God calling her

Oh would her son grow to know his father



Chorus:

I dont want to wait

For our lives to be over

I want to know right know

What will it be

I dont want to 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

Its so hard to be gentle and warm

The years passed by and now

He has a granddaughter



Chorus



Oh so you look at me

From across the room

Youre wearing your anguish again

Believe I know the feeling

It sucks you into the jaws of anger

Oh, so dig a little more deeply into my life

All we have is the very moment

And I dont want to do what

His father and his father and his father did

I want to be here know



So open up your morning light

And say a little prayer for i

You know that if we are to stay alive

And see the peace in every i



Chorus (2 times)



So open up your morning light

And say a little prayer for i

You know that if we are to stay alive

And see the love in every i
