======== LYRICS ========

WAITING FOR LIFE TO BEGIN

A stranger in white
In a car
Going somewhere
Going far

How it must feel to go racing wherever you please
Flying as free as a bird with it's tail in the breeze
Even the fish in the sea must be longing to fly
Catching a glimpse of a stranger and white racing by

Oh Gods, oh Gods
Are you there?
What can I do to get you to look down and give in?
Oh Gods, oh Gods
Hear my prayer
I'm here in the fields with my feet on the ground and my fate in the air
Waiting for life to begin

Mama's content and TonTon accepts what he gets
(ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la)
Happy for tea in their cups and no holes in their nets
(ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la)
Happy to have what they have and to stay where they are
(ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la)
They never even look up at the sound of a car
(ooh la, ooh la, ooh la, ooh la)

A stranger
Racing down the beach
Racing to places
I was meant to reach
My stranger
One day you'll arrive
Your car will stop, and in I'll hop, and off we'll drive

{**KEY CHANGE**}
We'll drive

Oh Gods, oh Gods
Please be there
Don't you remember your little Ti Moune from the tree?
Wake up
Look down
Hear my prayer
Don't single me out
and then forget me

Oh Gods, oh Gods
Let me fly
Send me to places where no one before me has been

You spared my life
Show me why
You get me to rise like a fish to the bait
Then tell me to wait

Well I'm waiting

Waiting for life to begin

Waiting for life
To begin
