Song | Love's On Its Way |
Artist | Corinne Bailey Rae |
Album | The Sea |
Oh Father, | |
I wish I had understanding. | |
Never known more | |
Never been so well informed | |
We know the score | |
Heard it all before, | |
But I've never felt more powerless | |
There's so much blood on the streets | |
So much hope refused | |
So much grainy teenage photographs on the evening news | |
Oo, when everywhere's violence | |
Silently I go | |
Love's on its way | |
I hope it won't be too late | |
When the day comes | |
And I've counted all my sins | |
How mant I'll see | |
I want to be able to say that I did more, more than pray | |
I did more | |
Than just spend my money | |
Just writing letters | |
Than just going out marching | |
I did more than talking and saying the right thing | |
Wearing the right thing | |
It's time for an uprising | |
Love's on its way | |
Hope it won't be too late | |
Love's on its way | |
Love's on its way | |
Love's on its way | |
Hope it won't be too late |
Oh Father, | |
I wish I had understanding. | |
Never known more | |
Never been so well informed | |
We know the score | |
Heard it all before, | |
But I' ve never felt more powerless | |
There' s so much blood on the streets | |
So much hope refused | |
So much grainy teenage photographs on the evening news | |
Oo, when everywhere' s violence | |
Silently I go | |
Love' s on its way | |
I hope it won' t be too late | |
When the day comes | |
And I' ve counted all my sins | |
How mant I' ll see | |
I want to be able to say that I did more, more than pray | |
I did more | |
Than just spend my money | |
Just writing letters | |
Than just going out marching | |
I did more than talking and saying the right thing | |
Wearing the right thing | |
It' s time for an uprising | |
Love' s on its way | |
Hope it won' t be too late | |
Love' s on its way | |
Love' s on its way | |
Love' s on its way | |
Hope it won' t be too late |
