How Much Longer? Songs About Waiting

We stay in to stay safe. We practice social distancing.  We wear masks and gloves. We visit one another on little screens. And we pace and we squirm and we wiggle and we have watched our favorite movies and TV shows so many times that we have learned all the lines and memorized the credits.  It will all end, but when?  Waiting is no fun, and it never was.

When I Look at the World  -  U2

 

I can't wait any longer
I can't wait 'til I'm stronger
Can't wait any longer
To see what you see
When I look at the world

 

This one would also work under songs about religion. Bono said it was about someone having a crisis of faith watching someone whose faith was strong.
