Barry Hay - Just A Little Bit Of Peace In My Heart lyrics

The rainbow hides no treasure Oh believe me it's not true And there ain't no mixture That will give you back your youth No mystic machine that makes the sand turn to gold Like there ain't no magic word That holds you back from getting old I catch a branch And I break it in my hands Like you broke my heart Oh I still can't understand No mysterious mixture Can heal the wound you've made Only time will bring peace to meand Now I just hate Oh I'll break up and I give it all up No more lies, no more rainbow treasures No more fairytales, no more games for me It's my life, my life, a pleasure There's just a little bit of peace in my heart There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part I catch a branch And I break it in my hands Like you broke my heart Oh I still can't understand No mysterious mixture Can heal the wound you've made Only time will bring peace to me And now I just hate Oh I'll break up and I give it all up No more lies, no more rainbow treasures No more fairytales, no more games for me It's my life, my life, a pleasure There's just a little bit of peace in my heart There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part The time rolls by, the days go by When will I learn to stop wondering why Despairing I'm going down on my knees I'm begging, begging, begging, oh please There's just a little bit of peace in my heart There's just a little bit of happiness I'll part
