I Don't Want to Wait (Originally Performed by Paula Cole) [Vocal Version] (伴奏)

I Don't Want to Wait - Hit Co. Masters

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 want to 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?

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 want to 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?

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

So breathe a little more deeply

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

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

I don't want to 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 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?

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 loves in every eye
