Simon Joyner - Only Love Can Bring You Peace lyrics

Some say it's the light that did remain when darkness came And the winter grew but that's not true Everywhere I look it is the same Everywhere I look it is pain Some say it's the chance to start again after the rain The blue sky returned but the seagulls learned While every nest they knew had fallen prey Everywhere they flew they were turned away The floor beneath the sinners turns to flame while the son of God hangs The purest pa**, they just turn into gas And rise into the skies to retire Like ashes in search of a a fire Some say let's get out of here for good and they sink where they stood And they don't move and they don't love And they don't celebrate and they don't grieve And they don't give and they don't need Some say the worst has come and gone and nothing's wrong They pull their shades to watch parades Where the veterans are wheeled behind inflatable mice Looking like heathens stricken by lightning twice Some say only love can bring you peace when you feel like this When you don't know what to do and I believe it's true The vagabond holds his hand out from his knees And the only word he can afford to say is "please"
