AMERICA - GARDEN OF PEACE lyrics

rate me

Written by Dewey Bunnel and Gerry Beckley, ©1994

Found on Hourglass.

I look inside at the scarlet room

Places to hide in the dusty gloom

A noisy clock and a silver spoon

A china cup on the mantlepiece

Gathering dust as it did in the east

And just outside lies the garden of peace

Oh, tell me is this really true

Can it be, peace has come to me and you

Tell me over, over and over

Tell me is this really happening

Inside this world it's beautiful

Peace in this garden has come true

A mirror pond reflects the dawn

Over the banks, 'cross the emerald lawn

A breeze has come and I'm carried along

So follow the path through the knowing trees

And each time you laugh, it is love you release

That love will come back in the garden of peace

So, tell me is this really true

Can it be, peace has come to me and you

Tell me over, over and over

Tell me is this really happening

Inside this world it's beautiful

Peace in the garden has come true

Oh, tell me is this really true

Can it be, peace has come to me and you

Tell me over, over and over

Tell me is this really happening

Inside this world it's beautiful

Peace in the garden has come true ...
