Lyrics

So open up your morning light,
And say a little prayer for right
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 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... sorry?
All we have is this 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
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
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over, over, over
I don't want to wait for our lives to be over,
Will it be yes or will it be... sorry
sorry
sorry
