Peaceful
Y. Rankin - Kenny Rankin
Ray Conniff
Lyrics:
In morning fun when no one will be drinking any more wine
I'll wake the sun up by givin' him a fresh air full of the wind cup.
And I won't be found in the shadows hiding sorrow
And I can wait for fate to bring around to me any part of my tomorrow, tomorrow.
'cause it's oh, so peaceful here.
No one bending over my shoulders.
Nobody breathing in my ear.
Oh, so peaceful here.
In the evening shadows are callin' me and the dew settles in my mind.
And I think of friends in the yesterday when my plans were gaggled in rhyme.
I had a son while on the run and his love brought a tear to my eye.
And maybe some day he'll up and say "We had a pretty nice time", oh, oh, my.
'cause it's oh, so peaceful here.
No one bending over my shoulders.
Nobody breathing in my ear.
Oh, so peaceful here.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Whoa!
So peaceful!
