When This Is Over

(álbum: Bettie James - 2020)

When this is over
I hope I take a little less for granted
Hope I'm a little more understanding
When some things don't make sense
When this is over
I hope I smile at a passing stranger
Take time to get to know my neighbors
And break bread every now and then

Oh, oh, oh 'cause right now all I got is time
To think about the bottom line
What I have, where I stand
How I live, who I am
I hope these hard times make me better and not just older
When this is over

I hope I stay out of my head
And I'm a little more empathetic
Put myself in people's shoes
When this is over
I'll kiss the ground and send a prayer to the sky
Thank God I'm breathing air and alive
And I get one more day with you

'Cause right now all I got is time
To think about the bottom line
And what I have, where I stand
How I live and who I am
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this is over

'Cause right now all I got is this
It's just a simple someday wish

What I have, where I stand
How I live and who I am
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this is over

When this is over
I hope these hard times make me better
I hope the distance brings us closer
When this, when this, when this is over
When this is over

Ladies and gentlemen, The Oak Ridge Boys

Right now all I got is time
To think about the bottom line
What I have, where I stand
How I live and who I am
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this is over
