I Don't Want to Wait
So open up your morning light
- So open up your morning light
- And say a little prayer for I
- You know if that 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 she thought it was God calling her
- Oh would her son grow to know his father
- I don't want to wait
- For our lives to be over
- I want to know right now
- What will it be
- I don't want to wait
- Our For 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 passed by and now
- He has granddaughters
- I don't want to wait
- For our lives to be over
- I want to know right now
- What will it be
- I don't want to wait
- For our lives to be over
- Will it be yes or will it be
- Oh so you look at me
- From across the room
- You're wearing your anguish again
- Believe me 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 don't want to do what
- His father and his father and his father did
- I want to 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

It's supposed to be an unwinding song yet now merely a regretful memory
I'm wonderstrucked with your angelic voice
