Janis Ian Nature's At Peace
Did you notice the dawn, Had the nerve to come on To the sunrise today? Have I said that my head Had the nerve to be dead, When I want it to break? Did you see that the sun Doesn't need anyone To come in on time?
Nature's at peace, Every time you see the rain.
But did you notice the trees, Are standing in peace, Without orders, without me? Have I told you the leaves, Can't be broken or creased? A silent symphony. Did you see the lights, When the clouds begun to try And hide the sun from the sky? Oh, every time you see the rain.
Can it be explained? Lady nature's back again. In a world that's gone insane, Lady nature takes away all the yearning.
Maybe I should'a try To cover up the lies? But the sun in the sky, Has never asked us why We are burning.
Nature's at peace, Every time you see the rain. Oo-oo-oo-ooo...
