On a city street somewhere,
Someone shoots a gun
In the midnight air.
And I don`t know why.
Somebody lives, somebody dies;
Somebody wrongs and a mother cries.
And I don`t know why.
Some things we`ll never understand;
Other things you change if you can.
Chorus:
Peace, you`ll find it where the heart is,
And the heart is right where love lives,
And love can always find a way.
Hope is something that reminds us,
It`s not too late to find us.
One day we may be in peace.
Haven`t spoken in thirty years
After angry words and bitter tears.
And I don`t know why.
Best of brothers and best of friends;
One mistake and their story ends.
And I don`t know why.
Some things we`ll never understand;
Other things you change if you can.
Chorus
It`s all about forgiveness;
With God as my witness
I wanna live to see peace.
