Peace Eludes Me

I don’t know where to find it
I’ve searched high and low
Waited in the restless harbor of my soul
A pilgrim for quiet
A beggar for hope
Oh, but peace still eludes me so

I stood out in the pouring rain
I stood naked in the sun
I walked day and night to get a touch of some
I seek forgiveness
I’m open to love
Oh, but peace, oh peace
Oh, but peace, it just doesn’t come

Hearts bruise easy
Pain sets in fast
Time moves quickly when you want it to last
Of all of the favors
Of all that I ask
Finding peace is the hardest task
Oh, peace
Oh, peace
Oh, peace still eludes me so
