I hear the people asking when will it end?
And when will man's fight ever cease?
To me it seems, the answer is love
For where there is love there is peace.
In the beginning there was a garden
And everything within was instilled with love
Nobody noticed
they all were different
and life was ... like ..
There was no evil in the garden
Nobody had been taught to hate
So everyone was loving,
that's what the good book said
to leave our neighbours
we must start
Making more
Peace for every brother
Peace for one another,
Peace enough for everyone.
If we just learn to love
For where there is love there is peace
Throughout the land, for every man
come take my hand
where there is love there is peace
I saw a picture of the garden
before the Apple tasting had begun
there was a serpent
a man, some lions
and other beasts ... as one
We got to get back to that garden
We have to take the time
to ...
only then we will have
Peace for every brother
Peace for one another,
Peace enough for everyone.
...
If we just learn to love
For where there is love there is peace
Throughout the land, for every man
come take my hand
Peace!
where there is love there is peace
Don't put it off until tomorrow
I cannot wait another day
...
Peace for every brother
Peace for one another,
Peace enough for everyone.
If we just learn to love
For where there is love there is peace
Throughout the land, for every man
come take my hand
Peace
where there is love there is peace

Super Bad
The song "Peace" (Astroscope # AS-110) from 1972 took a general anti-war perspective, rather than specifically targeting Vietnam. The narrator commented that "I hear the people asking when will it end?" - probably a reference to the early 70s protest movement. It then made several religious / biblical references: "there was no evil in the garden" - the narrator suggested that the world needed to turn to love and peace. It featured on their 1971 album Super Bad (Trip Records # TLP-9510). Note that the group also released the Vietnam-related single There's Someone Waiting (Back Home) in 1969.
Vietnam War Songs
Come al solito ho cercato di integrare all'ascolto il testo parziale pubblicato su Vietnam War Songs, in questo caso con scarso successo...
