Peace Like Rivers (Live Version)

(album: Quarantunes - 2023)

You lay it out on the grass and
Tell me I'm gonna need new flowers soon
You let me up in the attics
Say how the sink will have the best view

But I do
But I do

You lift the veil on the woodpile
Tell me how it burns without asking first
You lick the blood off of your hand
Say how I won't have to worry I'm cursed

But I do
But I do

Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We're right where we should be
That our prayers are received
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
Someone else can complete them
When I'm down I can stay down

So I turn our talk back to work now
Say there are certain games I won't play
You on your hands and knees cooing
Can't pick a card any card so won't you

I do
Said I do

Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We are right where we should be
That our prayers are received
Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
Someone else came between us
And when I'm down I can stay down

Peace like rivers in a dream
I like that to mean
We are right where we should be
That our prayers are received
