I Wish We'd All Been Ready

Verse 1
Life was filled with guns and war 
And ev'ry one got trampled on the floor.
I wish we'd all been ready.
Children died, the days grew cold, 
A piece of bread would buy a bag of gold.
I wish we'd all been ready.

Bridge 1
There's no time to change your mind 
The Son is come and you've been left behind, left behind.

Verse 2
Man and wife asleep in bed, 
She hears a noise and turns her head, He's gone.
I wish we'd all been ready.
Two men coming up a hill, one disappears and one left standing still.
I wish we'd all been ready.

Bridge 2
There's no time to change your mind  How could you have been so blind?
The Father spoke, the demons dined, 
The Son is come and you've been left behind.
You've been left be-hind. You've been left behind.
