Peace in the Morning

There will be peace in the morning

There will be sunshine in the rain

There will be love in everyone's heart

Love that's pure, simple and plain

Mockingbird sits on my shoulder

Singing sweet songs for all to hear

An angel of love is holding my hand

But still I wish that you were here

Without you there's no peace in the morning

There's no sunshine in the rain

There's no love, there's not even hope

There's only suffering, sorrow and pain

There will be peace in the morning

The sun will shine across the land

There will be hope of a new tomorrow

As we walk together hand in hand

Happiness and love are now with me

Sorrow and pain are left behind

A new start, a future to build

Is what together we will find

Without you there's no peace in the morning

There's no sunshine in the rain

There's no love, there's not even hope

There's only suffering, sorrow and pain
