What she might have been
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
He's just waiting for the light to shine on a brand new day
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
We're just waiting for the light to shine on a brand new day
All I got is a compromise and a bag full of alibis
Now he don't know if he's a communist, a hedonist or a whore
If she'd sung for salvation, if she'd danced on her dreams
He feels so twisted, he ain't ever gonna fix it
He's too blind to read between the lines 'cause the writing's on the wall
You got that mystery, I need a plan
Spent too much time ridin' on a white line to find the door
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
If he did and he opened it, he'd find those letters in the hall
As empty as the bottle of whiskey in my shaking hands
'Cause tonight we're gonna blow it all away
There's gonna be peace in the valley, peace in the valley
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
But there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
But there's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
'Cause tonight he's gonna blow it all away
Drowning in a bottle of beer
Well, I got ecstasy, but I need some company
It's too dangerous to think about
There's gonna be peace in the valley tomorrow, yeah
In the morning she mourns the decline of her mind
Danced on her dreams
We feel so twisted, we ain't ever gonna fix it
Let that light shine awhile
