This was first aired when I was in freshmen High School and it got everybody addicted (when I say everybody, I mean all the girls) but back then we don't have any television and Dawson's Creek was aired every Monday night at 8AM and our neighbors don't watch it because it's in English and they'd rather watch something in our native tongue.
I saw bits and pieces of the series but not all the seasons and with the power of Ebay am able to acquire the entire seasons in DVD and now am watching it. Episode by episode, season per season and it reminds me of high school. Another trip down memory lane here.
So here's the track at the opening of the series:
I Don't Want To Wait by Paula Cole
so open up your morning light
and say a little prayer for right
you know that if we are to stay alive
and see the peace in every eye
she had two babies
one was six months one was three
in the war of '44
every telephone ring
every heartbeat stinging
when thought it was God calling her
oh would her son grow to know his father
CHORUS:
i don't want to wait
for our lives to be over
i want to know right now
what will it be
i don't want to wait
for our lives to be over
will it be yes or will it be
sorry
he showed up all wet
on the rainy front step
wearing shrapnel in his skin
and the war he saw
lives inside him still
it's so hard to be gentle and warm
the years passed by and now
he has a granddaughter
chorus
oh so you look at me
from across the room
you're wearing your anguish again
believe i know the feeling
it sucks you into the jaws of anger
oh, so breathe a little more deeply my love
all we have is the very moment
and i don't want to do what
his father and his father and his father did
i want to be here now
so open up your morning light
and say a little prayer for I
you know that if we are to stay alive
and see the peace in every eye
chorus (2 times)
so open up your morning light
and say a little prayer for right
you know that if we are to stay alive
and see the love in every eye
