The World According To Lionel

Her Peace Again

I can feel, And I can take it
And I can deal and I can rake it
And she can love and she can make it
It's all down to us
And I can have and I can hold
And I can grow weary and cold
Like nothing will ever come back
Unless you sing it real slow

And if I don't
Maybe, it's cause that she won't
But it all means nothing when she's standing, smiling next to me
And if she does, And if she cares
And if it lasts a million years
I won't ever let her go

And I take her easy as pie
When I see the look that's drifting into her eyes
And she's thinking something that I believe is true
And I see the tears coming down
Like the time the dead dog was found
On the side of the road and nobody knew
Who it belonged to

If I can take a step back
Maybe just for an hour
Maybe I can regain my power
and hold her tight again
And if I could do my deed
get some of what it is my heart and soul needs
And maybe she could have her peace again
Her peace again
