Phil Collins — We Wait and We Wonder

[Verse 1] We stand, hang our heads disbelieving Then not knowing how could such a thing be wrong We wonder just what they must be thinking To take a life of one so young [Chorus] So tell me when will it be over now, how soon? How far must they go, to prove to you? [Verse 2] We wait and we wonder how this happened Killing the old, the innocent, the young While sons follow in fathers footsteps not understanding That what they do could somehow be so wrong [Chorus] So tell me when will it be over now, how soon? How far must they go, to prove to you? [Bridge] So we will wait and we'll wonder [Verse 3] No regrets, no forgiveness, no compassion These brave heroes only know to hit and run Slowly my sadness turns to rage and we wonder How can these scars ever heal, when all is said and done [Chorus] So 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? [Outro] So we wait and we wonder Yes we wait and we wonder We wait, we wait and we wonder Yes we wait, we'll wait and we'll wonder Yes we wait, so all my life We wait and we wonder Yes we wait and we wonder
