We hold our breath and we wait
For some good news to hear
A scrap of faith in which to believe
But all we get are reasons to fear
That our sons and our daughters
Are still alive in the middle east
How long must we wait
Before we finally get some peace
And you know I share your fears
We’re both fighting back the tears
Wondering when, we’ll see the end
Of the war years
You know I gave you my vote
Because I thought that you’d understand
We hold our breath and we wait
For some good news to hear
A scrap of faith in which to believe
But all we get are reasons to fear
That our sons and our daughters
Are still alive in the middle east
How long must we wait
Before we finally get some peace
I want a future for my family
Health and hope for this land
So maybe you can explain to me
I hope you can understand
How the hell we ended up
Sending our kids to Afghanistan
And on the calendar on the wall
Time passes into years
Long enough for the dust to settle
And the anger to clear
Now we hold our breath and we wait
