Lyrics

Peaceful Morning

I thought I heard the angels, Lord

When I was on the chapel floor

But I'll never be sure

Those old familiar harmonies

They carried us through New Orleans

In ice water smacking kisses

Sour lemon mouthfuls

Of black hours, seersucker

Powdered sugar moon glow

I know when you're with me

That your spirit's gonna lift me

So I never change directions

And I never ask no questions

Oh, I wish I could hear it

Cause I still feel the spirit

From the rafters to the ceiling

I'm waiting on that feeling

Oh, I know

I know that you're coming

Are you walking or are you running?

And I know when you're with me

That your spirit's gonna lift me

Oh, I know that you're coming

Are you walking or are you running?

And I know when you're with me

That your spirit's gonna lift me

Oh, I know that you're coming

Are you walking or are you running?

But I know you'll be leaving

Yeah, you'll always find a reason

Oh, I know that you're coming

Are you walking or are you running?

Oh, I know that you're coming

Are you walking or are you running?
