Oh God, if I could only learn to change things Turn back the hands that dragged us down White picket fences falling in the distance Oh, darling sisters, I can learn to hold you now This place children treated like the adults Responsibility for conflict you can teach Their homes, they only keep on changing Can they keep us happy? Can they keep us pleased? Waiting on a sign of your love to ease my mind, but You're too busy floating on edge Waiting on a reason to keep me from your side If only I could feel it Then I could understand If only I could feel it Mother, if I could only go and change things Give you the life that you wanted for me Father, if I could only help you find peace For the things you did and didn't do that brought you to your knees Waiting on a sign of your love to ease my mind, but You're too busy floating on edge Waiting on a reason to keep me from your side If only I could feel it Then I could understand If only I could feel it If only I could feel it Then I could understand If only I could feel it If only I could feel it Then I could understand
