I've always wondered what the world would be like

If we all just took, two steps back and prayed for peace

I've always wondered how the air would smell

Do you think that we'd be able to tell, without the smell of fear?

That we're going to hell.

There's a fire in my heart, you're not putting out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul, try and beat it out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace.

My heart was pure, my soul was clean

Got shipped away to a war zone, across the shining sea

In the name of peace

My mama told me "youngest son, don't lose your mind to that loaded gun"

And I lost it, now I'm on the run.

There's a fire in my heart, you're not putting it out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul, try and beat it out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace.

There's a fire in my heart, you're not putting out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace

There's a song in my soul, try and beat it out

There's no need to scream or shout

Just pray for peace

Just pray for peace.
