Peaceful
Benji Lewis Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You cut me deep
And I’m still healin
It’s been a long time
Since I heard your voice
Felt your touch

Oh I can’t help
Thinkin bout us
What it felt like
And wouldn’t it be nice
Wouldn’t it be

But we lost it
And we lost out

Take me where
Take me where I needa be
Away from heartache
Somewhere fresh it’s peaceful

Peaceful, peaceful, peaceful

And now I sit up look around
In this white painted room
All the walls are covered with photos
Friends and the memories

I looked into your eyes
I saw my future bright
Remember the moment like, it was yesterday
Laying next to you

But we lost it
And we lost out

Take me where
Take me where I needa be
Away from heartache
Somewhere fresh it’s peaceful

Peaceful, peaceful, peaceful

(On the rise, On the horizon)

And now I run away
I cannot go there again
Never see or go around
I avoid your neighbourhood

I still feel you there





But we lost it
And we lost out
