Peace in Our Time

Go swiftly
The flags and drums can hypnotize
When glory has faded
The dream is worth more than the prize

A twisting turning flame
And a freedom burning bright
Knows all of the names and all of the games
Of the yellow, black and white

We've gotta have faith to work it out
Faith and hope without any doubt
Give us strength to make a start
Put a song in our hearts

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time

Softly, softly
When there is lightening in the sky
When the rivers are rising
And trouble rolls in on the tide

We'll keep on keeping on
'Til all the tears are dry
We'll weather the storm and welcome the dawn
Of tomorrow you and I

We've gotta have faith and get it fast
Faith and hope and make it last
Give us strength to reach the stars
Put a song in our hearts

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time

We're raisin' the dust
It's heaven or bust
And we'll see this dream come true

We're gonna have faith
(Faith)
The road will be long but there's hope
(Hope)
To carry us on
We'll have strength, we'll never go wrong
(Strength)
With this song in our hearts

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time

At the sign of the dove
(Sign)
It's gonna shine
(Shine)
Shine
(Shine)
Shine
(Shine)

On a wing and a prayer
We'll be fine
Fine
Fine

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
Turning water into wine
We're gonna take love and make it shine
We're gonna find peace in our time

We're never gonna break down these walls
And build a prison with the stone
'Cos you and I know what love is worth
We're gonna build heaven on earth

We're running in the wheels of fortune
