Lisa Chappell: When Then Is Now

When Then Is Now
When the world stops running
and looks me in the eye
and starts to answer all my questions why
when God is patient and so am I
Ill be happy
When life goes simply from a to b
and the pearly white flags are flowing free
hope not blood is the story that leads
Ill be happy
When my teeth stop hurting
and my bird stops hissing
and my doubts go missing Ill be free
ooh, ooh Ill be happy
When my teeth stop hurting
and my bird stops hissing
and my doubts go missing Ill be free
ooh, ooh Ill be happy
When then is now
when then is now
when then is now
when then is now
When our children`s tears are not black stains
and our brothers and sisters dont die in vain
when our mothers are free to breathe again
Ill be happy
When we breathe in love and not bad air
when we call you friend anywhere
when our politicians really to start to care
Ill be happy
When my teeth stop hurting
and my bird stops hissing
and my doubts go missing Ill be free
ooh, ooh, Ill be happy
When then is now
when then is now
when then is now
when then is now
When our minds expand
for more than one right
when we speak the words
thatll stop the fight
when we all stop and look inside
Ill be happy
When the father forgives
by the dying daughters side
when theres no such thing
as youth suicide
when were all high on the joy of life
Ill be happy
When my teeth stop hurting
and my bird stops hissing
and my doubts go missing Ill be free
ooh, ooh Ill be happy
When my teeth stop hurting
and my bird stops hissing
and my doubts go missing Ill be free
ooh, ooh Ill be happy
When then is now
when then is now
when then is now
when then is now
When then is now
when then is now
