Peace

On a city street somewhere
Someone shoots a gun
In the midnight air
And I don't know why
Somebody lives, somebody dies
Somebody wrongs and a mother cries
And I don't know why.

Some things we'll never understand
Other things you change if you can.

[Chorus:]
Peace, you'll find it where the heart is
And the heart is right where love lives
And love can always find a way
Hope is something that reminds us
It's not too late to find us
One day we may be in peace.

Haven't spoken in thirty years
After angry words and bitter tears
And I don't know why
Best of brothers and best of friends
One mistake and their story ends
And I don't know why.

Some things we'll never understand
Other things you change if you can.

[Chorus]

It's all about forgiveness
With God as my witness
I want to live to see peace.

[Chorus]
