Serenity

Baby

We're not looking for eternity

So smile now

While you're looking for this serenity

He dosses out here in doorways

Caught between wars

Tells us something is coming

Won't reveal more

She shuffles up close beside him

And kisses his ear

I guess all our time is running

Running on fear

And it goes around

Round, around again

Like a magic circle

Till it comes to the end

Baby

We're not looking for eternity

So smile now

While you're looking for serenity

Out from the marble palaces

Kings and queens Will rejoice

Their importance of being

Their importance of choice

And as they swung Mussolini

Like a chime in the breeze

The pope blessed his children

In a sea of sleaze

And it comes around

Round, around again

Like a magic circle

Till it comes to the end

Baby

We're not looking for eternity

So smile now

While you're looking for serenity

[Solo]

And It still flowers

In springtime

Dogs howl at the moon

Now the funeral is leaving

To the general's own tune

All the rich and the famous

Don't know who I am

The jokers and the jugglers

Even the prince of Siam

And it goes around

Round and round again

Like a magic circle

Till it comes to the end

Baby

We're not looking for eternity

Yeah, yeah

So smile now

While you're looking for serenity

Oh yeah

Baby

A little faith or charity

So smile now

While you're looking for serenity

Oh Baby

We're not looking for eternity

Hey, hey yeah

So smile now

While you're looking for eternity

Hey, hey yeah yeah

Baby

A little faith or charity
