Phil Collins - We Wait & We Wonder Lyrics
to the outsider it seems that we in britain live daily under the cloud of terrorism. that familiarity sometimes makes you think of it as almost normal, then suddenly something will happen...We stand, hang our heads disbelievingThen not knowing how could such a thing be wrongWe wonder just what they must be thinkingTo take a life of one so youngSo tell me when will it be over now, how soon?How far must we go, to prove to you?We wait and we wonder how this happenedKilling the old, the innocent, the youngWhile sons follow in fathers footsteps not understandingThat what they do could somehow be so wrongSo tell me when will it be over now, how soon?How far must we go, to prove to you?So we will wait and well wonderNo regrets, no forgiveness, no compasssionThese brave heroes only know to hit and runSlowly my sadness turns to rage and we wonderHow can these scars ever heal, when all is said and doneSo tell me when will it be over now, how soon?How many tears must fall to prove to you?Please tell me, when will it be over now, how soon?And how far must they go, to prove to you?So we wait and we wonder
