So open up your morning light
Say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive
And 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 stingin'
When she thought that it was God callin' her
Oh, would her son grow to know his father?
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't wanna 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, now he has granddaughters
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?
Sorry, yeah
So open up your morning light
Say a little prayer for I
You know that if we are to stay alive
And see the peace in every eye
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be-, whoa, oh
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
I want to know right now what will it be, no, no, no, no, no
I don't wanna wait for our lives to be over
Will it be yes or will it be sorry?
Sorry
Whoa, oh
