I Wish We'd All Been Ready Lyrics - Cliff Richard

Life was filled with guns and war 

And everyone got trampled on the floor 

I wish we'd all been ready 

Children died the day grew cold 

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold 

I wish we'd all been ready 

There's no time to change your mind 

The son has come and you've been left behind 

A man and wife sleep in bed she hears a noise 

And turns her head he's gone 

I wish we'd all been ready

Two men walking up a hill one disappears and 

One's left standing still 

I wish we'd all been ready 

There's no time to change your mind 

The son has come and you've been left behind 

Life was filled with guns and war 

And everyone got trampled on the floor 

I wish we'd all been ready 

Children died the days grew cold 

A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold 

I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind 

How could you have been so blind 

The father spoke the demons dined 

The son has come and you've been left behind.
