Peace Like A River Lyrics by Jerry Lawson

Just A Mortal Man

2015

[Verse 1]
Peace like a river ran through the city
One passed at midnight, curfew, we sat starry-eyed
We were satisfied
And I remember mis-information followed us just like a plague
Nobody knew from time to time if the plans were changed
Nobody knew if the plans were changed
[Hook] x2
You can beat us with wires
You can beat us with chains
You can run out your rules
But you know you can't out run the history train
Seen the glorious days
[Verse 2]
Four in the morning I woke up from out of my dreams
No where to got but back to sleep
But I'm reconciled
I'm gonna be up for a while
I'm gonne be up for a while
I'm gonne be up for a while
