Edwin McCain - A Prayer to St. Peter

Album:

Let them in Peter â?¢ For they are very tired â?¢ Give them couches where the angels sleep â?¢ And light those fires â?¢ Let them wake whole again â?¢ To brand new dawns â?¢ Fired by the sun â?¢ Not war-times bloody guns â?¢ May their peace be deep â?¢ Remember where the broken bodies lie â?¢ God knows how young they were â?¢ To have to die â?¢ Give them things they like â?¢ Let them make some noise â?¢ Give dance hall bands not golden harps â?¢ To these our boys â?¢ Let them love Peter â?¢ For they've had no time â?¢ They should have bird songs and trees â?¢ And hills to climb â?¢ The taste of summer â?¢ And a ripened pear â?¢ And girls sweet as meadow wind â?¢ And flowing hair â?¢ And tell them how they are missed â?¢ But say not to fear â?¢ It's gonna be all right â?¢ With us down here
