Peace Like a River

[Verse 1] Ooh, peace like a river ran through the city Long past the midnight curfew, we sat starry eyed, oh Oh, and I remember misinformation followed us like a plague Nobody knew from time to time if the plans were changed, oh If the plans were changed [Chorus] Yeah, you can beat us with wires You can beat us with chains Yeah, you can run out your rules But you know there ain't no use Oh, peace like a river [Verse 2] Ooh, four in the morning I woke up from out of my dream Nowhere to go but back to sleep, but I’m reconciled Oh, I'm gonna be up for a while Yeah, I'm gonna be up for a while Yeah, I'm gonna be up for a while, oh [Chorus] Go on, yeah, beat us with wires (hey yeah) Go on, why don't you beat us with chains You can run out your rules But you know there ain't no use, no Oh yeah, peace like a river Oh (Oh, peace like a river)
