Peaceable Kingdom - Recorded At Electric Lady Studios

Yesterday I saw you standin' there
With your hand upon the pane
Lookin' out the window
At the rain

And I wanted to tell you
That your tears were not in vain
But I guess we both knew
We'd never be the same
Never be the same

Why must we hide all these feelings inside?
Lions and lambs shall abide

Maybe one day we'll be strong enough
To build it back again
Build the peaceable kingdom
Build it back again

Why must we hide all these feelings inside?
Lions and lambs shall abide

Maybe one day we'll be strong enough
To build it back again
Build the peaceable kingdom
Back again

Maybe one day we'll be strong enough
We can build it back again
Build the peaceable kingdom
Build it back again
Build the peaceable kingdom
Build it back again

I was dreaming in my dreaming
Of an aspect bright and fair
And my sleepin', it was broken
But my dream, it lingered near

In the form of shinin' valleys
Where the pure air rarified
And my senses newly opened
'Cause I awakened to the cry

That the people have the power
To redeem the work of fools
Upon the meek the graces shower
It's decreed the people rule
