Peace In Our Time Lyrics - Singles - Richard Cliff

Go swiftly 

The flags and drums can hypnotise 

When glory has faded the dream 

Is worth more than the prize 

A twisting turning flame 

And a freedom burning bright 

Knows all of the names 

And all of the games 

Of the yellow, black and white 

We've gotta have faith 

To work it out 

Faith and hope 

Without any doubt 

Give us strength to make a start 

Put a song in our hearts ... 

We're never gonna break down these walls 

And build a prison with a stone 

'Cos you know what love is worth 

We're gonna build a heaven on earth 

We're running in the wheels of fortune 

Turning water into wine 

We're gonna take love and make it shine 

We're gonna find peace in our time 

Softly, softly 

When there is lightning in the sky 

When the rivers are rising and 

Trouble rolls in on the tide 

We'll keep on keeping on 

'Til all the tears are dry 

We'll weather the storm 

Welcome the dawn 

Of tomorrow you and I 

We've gotta have faith 

And get it fast 

Faith and hope 

And make it last 

Give us strength 

To reach the stars 

Put a song in our hearts 

We're never gonna break down these walls 

And build a prison with a stone 

'Cos you know what love is worth 

We're gonna build a heaven on earth 

We're running in the wheels of fortune 

Turning water into wine 

We're gonna take love and make it shine 

We're gonna find peace in our time 

We're raisin' the dust 

It's heaven or bust 

And we'll see this dream come true 

We're gonna have faith (faith) 

The road will be long 

But there's hope (hope) 

To carry us on 

We'll have strength (strength) 

We'll never go wrong 

With this song in our hearts 

We're never gonna break down these walls 

And build a prison with a stone 

'Cos you know what love is worth 

We're gonna build a heaven on earth 

We're running in the wheels of fortune 

Turning water into wine 

We're gonna take love and make it shine 

We're gonna find peace in our time 

At the sign (sign) 

Of the dove 

Is gonna shine (shine) 

On a wing 

And a prayer 

We'll be fine 

Fine 

Fine 

We're never gonna break down these walls 

And build a prison with a stone 

'Cos you know what love is worth 

We're gonna build a heaven on earth 

We're running in the wheels of fortune 

Turning water into wine 

We're gonna take love and make it shine 

We're gonna find peace in our time
