Rest In Peace Lyrics - Mott The Hoople

Oh, if my wheel could take another turn 

And if my life replaced itself again 

I wouldn't want a single thing to change 

Oh, it's been good, though it's been strange 

And if my dreams were willing to come true 

Oh, I would not even try to force them through 

I'm sure there's things I've missed, that others preached 

The goals they reached, they weren't for me 

Rest in peace 

Even though worries seem to mount 

Don't let them count 

Rest in peace 

Throw all those miles and paper smiles away 

Though you will willow pattern pictures through the rain 

And swallow when your heart begins to breathe 

Just like the birds, do what they please 

'Cause you know, we ain't gonna be here all that long 

And when I go I want to know I sung 

If there's a road ahead, I'll jump right in 

Just got to win, this is my hymn 

Rest in peace 

Even though your worries seem to mount 

Don't let them count 

Rest in peace 

Rest in peace
