SONG OF THE DAY #01: I DON'T WANT TO WAIT

It's a sunny and calm Wednesday morning,  so I thought it would be nice to share with you what I am listening to from my playlists. This will be the first time that I'll make an entry for #WaybackWednesday (if I remember correctly) wherein I will share with you some of my fave songs or music videos from the 90's. (Yup, a 90's kid here).
I've been hooked with teen drama series on tv during the 90's. One of my favorite was DAWSON'S CREEK. A series about four friends living in a small hometown, helping each other to cope with the adventures and misadventures of teenage years... I love Katie Holmes (Joey Potter) and Joshua Jackson (Pacey Witter) character in that series. Sorry Dawson! Arrrggghhhhh I miss those years, being young and carefree. So, I really do not intend to be too emotional while reminiscing my teenage years so let's just listen to the track/watch the video shall we... :)

"I DON'T WANT TO WAIT"  - Paula Cole

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...

doo doo doo doo do doo do 

do do doo doo doo doo dooo doo ooh

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?

[CHORUS:]

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?

doo doo oooh doo ooh do do ooh

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

[CHORUS]

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(oooooooh)

So breathe a little more deeply my love

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 right

You know that if we are to stay alive,

And see the peace in every eye...

[CHORUS x2]

doo doo doo dooo oooh do dooo doo

doo doo doo dooo do doooo oooh

doo doo doo do dooo do do 

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 love in every eye...

Enjoy listening...... Have a great day!
