The Peace That's Waiting - addictivetalksource.com

Composed by: Melanie Bradley

(Verse 1)
The world outside is humming, a hundred different tunes,
A broken, angry song, beneath a hundred moons.
We’re building walls between us, a fortress made of fear,
And all the things that bind us, are starting to disappear.
A fragile peace is broken, a quiet, whispered plea,
In a world that’s getting colder, for you and also me.

(Chorus)
Oh, let’s find a way to love each other, and find a better way,
And make a brand new song, for a brand new day.
Let’s find the peace that’s waiting, in every heart and mind,
And let’s be happy together, in a world that’s truly kind.

(Verse 2)
The world is full of people, with tired, weary eyes,
Just looking for a reason, beneath the lonely skies.
A simple act of kindness, a hand that reaches out,
Can turn a heart of stone and banish every doubt.
A single, gentle promise, a kind and knowing grace,
Can find the light that’s hidden in the darkest, empty space.

(Bridge)
It’s hard to hold on tightly, in a world that lets go fast,
And hard to find a future, when you’re living in the past.
But a small and gentle candle, can light a thousand more,
And find the love that’s waiting, behind a locked and guarded door.

(Outro)
So let’s be happy…
And let’s be kind…
And let’s find the peace…
That we left behind…
