Peace In Our Time Songtext

Who holds the money, who holds the needWho holds the strings of misery or the purse of greedAnd the gunmen reap while the gangsters sowAnd law is cheap when the smugglers go(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time(Give us peace) Give usp eace in our timeWhile I have a life to liveThen I have no life to give(Give us peace) Give us peace in our timeIn sun-kissed rooms in city slumsMinds are restless till the airmail comesFrom the forest floor to the western mindLike a chat show topic on a party lineAnd the hardest love of all is to forgiveAs the world comes tumbling down(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time(Give us peace) Give us peace in our timeWhile I have a life to liveThen I have no life to give(Give us peace) Give us peace in our timeLet all the rain come down on blind desireLike a thundercloud that holds a prairie fireI hear the blame and I see the causeA stronger voice and a stronger lawBut buyers buy and sellers sellPublic consumption of a private hell(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time(Give us peace) Give us peace in our timeWhile I have a life to liveThen I have no life to give(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time(Give us peace) Give us peace in our timeWhile I have a life to liveThen I have no life to give(Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
