The Peace Movement Lyrics

It's the simple things I remember

The rain that just missed me on Atlantic City streets

Sleeping outside at the foot of Trump's Tower

Then the big slab of rock with a shape like a bed with a pillow

Most uncomfortable damn bed ever, but better than ground

The women on the road drift in and out of mind

It was a tough time, working for the peace movement

They gave and took like the good folks they were

And the men made me feel like I was doing ok, all grown up

Even though I wasn't

The early days were in poverty

But oh man how different than today

Much richer in content and excitable

My whole future was ahead, undiluted

Possible

It's not a place I'd want to be again

But man what a trail what a crazy love

The people now ghosts, beautiful sexy ghosts

In the sunrises with we are a circle within a circle

And the food not bombs folks feeding us

And we were against the tyrants

We were on the right side

All different races, poor and rich, famous and nobody's

We were for something, hippie patriots

In love with life and each other

And time

In total love with time
