John Miles - Peaceful Waters Lyrics

A matter of time to make it, to take it till the end
He's told so many people, now he can't go back again
He lost his feet on a one way street with no place he can go
Spent his last dime on a telephone line but nobody wants to know

One more day and he'll be dreamin'
Let the night time roll away
He'll do great things tomorrow
So much to do today

Another mountain he'll be climbin'
To a valley down below
There's sunshine all around him
Where the peaceful waters flow

His best friend was a stranger, he'd never seen before
Took him through the bad times, made him live for something more
He's much too wise for the long goodbyes when everything goes wrong
Hopin' he'll find what he's got on his mind, the loser carries on

One more day and he'll be dreamin'
Let the night time roll away
He'll do great things tomorrow
So much to do today

Another mountain he'll be climbin'
To a valley down below
There's sunshine all around him
Where the peaceful waters flow

He could get there in a lifetime
He could get there in a while
Oh, it doesn't really matter anyhow
He could miss it by a moment

He could miss it by a mile
But he left her side
For some foolish pride
And he's got to make it now

One more day and he'll be dreamin'
Let the night time roll away
He'll do great things tomorrow
So much to do today
Another mountain he'll be climbin'

To a valley down below
There's sunshine all around him
Where the peaceful waters flow
There's sunshine all around him
Where the peaceful waters flow

Another mountain he'll be climbin'
To a valley down below
There's sunshine all around him
Where the peaceful waters flow
