Peace In Our Time

歌詞

Who holds the money, who holds the need Who holds the strings of misery or the purse of greed And the gunmen reap while the gangsters sow And law is cheap when the smugglers go (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time While I have a life to live Then I have no life to give (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time In sun-kissed rooms in city slums Minds are restless till the airmail comes From the forest floor to the western mind Like a chat show topic on a party line And the hardest love of all is to forgive As the world comes tumbling down (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time While I have a life to live Then I have no life to give (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time Let all the rain come down on blind desire Like a thundercloud that holds a prairie fire I hear the blame and I see the cause A stronger voice and a stronger law But buyers buy and sellers sell Public consumption of a private hell (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time While I have a life to live Then 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 time While I have a life to live Then I have no life to give (Give us peace) Give us peace in our time
