The peace in my mind just like water flows
Soft and clear where the wild grass grows
It ripples in the quiet of the moonlit glow
Still
It shifts when the restless winds blow
Oh
The river bends but it never breaks
Mirror of the skies and the hearts it takes
Peace like water
It slips through my hands
Falling through fingers
I don’ t understand
One moment it’ s calm
Then it’ s slipping away
Peace like water
It won’ t ever stay
The peace in my chest like a lake in spring
Still as a secret till the ripples ring
Every breath I take feels the surface sing
But a storm in the distance can change everything
Oh
The river bends but it never breaks
Mirror of the skies and the hearts it takes
Peace like water
It slips through my hands
Falling through fingers
I don’ t understand
One moment it’ s calm
Then it’ s slipping away
Peace like water
It won’ t ever stay
