Lyrics

Peace of Mind

I have come to stand before you
At the rising of the tide
With the shelter of a lover
You have carried me inside
And picked me up
And held me high
Without a word
Of truth or lie
Of truth or lie

I have also known your anger
Your jealousy and pride
When I took another lover
You left no place safe to hide
You threw me down
You redefined
You took away
My peace of mind
My peace of mind

And if you ask the question
Be sure you want to hear
For the answer put before you
May just be the one you fear

I have sought from you your council
As I walked along the sand
But your answers were as fleeting
Slipping through my open hand
I reached for you
And clutched the air
Not knowing if you
Were even there
If you were there

And if you ask the question
Be sure you want to hear
For the answer put before you
May just be the one you fear
