The Lyrics

I WANT PEACE

I want peace, but it’s improbable,
With men out there, so irresponsible.
With men out there who lust for power,
While their people cringe and cower.

I want peace for everywhere,
But there are those who just don’t care.
All they want, to go to war,
Always wanting even more.

But I want peace, am I asking much?
I want peace for everyone,
To end all wars, to have them done,
I want a peace, we hope will last,
That’s the peace I want, I want peace.

I want peace on any terms,
But it seems people never learn,
Some who try, they’re going nowhere,
There are those who simply don’t care.

But I want peace, am I asking much?
I want peace that’s going to last,
Don’t hang about and make it fast,
I want a peace we can all enjoy,
That’s the peace I want, I want peace.

Let’s bring it on, make it quick,
Forget the rogues, they make me sick.
I want to see an end to war,
A peaceful life, and nothing more.

Though there are those who lust for power,
But underneath they’re simply cowards.

But I want peace, am I asking much?
I want peace that’s going to last,
Don’t hang about and make it fast,
I want a peace we can all enjoy,
That’s the peace I want, I want peace.

But I want peace, am I asking much?
I want peace that’s going to last,
Don’t hang about and make it fast,
I want a peace we can all enjoy,
That’s the peace I want, I want peace.
