Peace Like A River

Lyrics

Peace like a river ran through the city

Long past the midnight curfew

We sat starry-eyed

We were satisfied

And I remember

Misinformation followed us like a plague

Nobody knew from time to time

If the plans where changed

If the plans were changed

You can beat us with wires

You can beat us with chains

You can run out your rules

But you know you can't outrun the history train

I 've seen a glorious day

Four in the morning

I woke up from out of my dreams

Nowhere to go but back to sleep

But I'm reconciled

Oh, oh, oh, I'm gonna be up for a while

Oh, oh, oh

I'm gonna be up for a while
