Phil Collins & David Crosby
The song might be about the horror and the violence of the massacre which occured in the the history of humankind, and lately, terrorism which started in Europe at the time of the album. It calls for becoming aware of how they were terrible and to think the problem again.
[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
