Lord, take me home to the peaceful valley |
|
Down the winding rivers the city of souls |
|
I've grown so tired and my heart's too heavy |
|
To walk any longer to your cities of gold |
|
All my life, |
|
I've longed for forgiveness |
|
But I can never seem to get enough |
|
All my life, |
|
I've been rocked into the darkness |
|
With a gun to my head |
|
Trying to find a peaceful song |
|
Trying to find a peaceful song |
|
To sing when everything goes wrong |
|
Till the peaceful valley calls me home |
|
Up there in the clouds, in that glorious kingdom |
|
Tell me, there ain't nothin' but an easy decline |
|
Can I still smoke cigarettes and have my coffee |
|
Up there in heaven and a bottle of wine? |
|
All my life, |
|
I've been lost out in the darkness |
|
But I can never seem to get enough |
|
All my life, |
|
I've been locked into the darkness |
|
With a gun to my head |
|
Trying to find a peaceful song |
|
Trying to find a peaceful song |
|
To sing when everything goes wrong |
|
Till the peaceful valley calls me home |
|
Oh, take me home to the peaceful valley |
|
Down the winding rivers to the city of gold |
