Peace And Quiet
Mary Ives Lyrics

I just need
A little peace and quiet
Some time all to myself
For my mental health
Won't let it slip away
I wanna lay here
Without a single care
Let the wind blow my hair
Till I've had my share
I wanna go to the lake
I wanna sip a milkshake
Let the sun bake my skin
Till it's golden brown
Hey, everybody calm down
I won't get melanoma
I'm not a beach girl
Not a mountain girl
Not a snow girl
No girl
Nowhere in the world
Will let me ease my mind
I need my me-time

I just need
A little peace and quiet
Some time all to myself
For my mental health
Don't let it slip away
I wanna sprawl out
Underneath the beautiful sun
Or lay in my bed with no one
To me that sounds like fun

But I still might go to the lake
I could really use that milkshake
Sticks and stones break my bones
But words won't change me
No, I won't get lonely
'Cause I'm my best company
Unwind, you might find
You needed that time
But don't take it from me
Leave me be
And try it out, baby
A little peace and quiet
Some time all to myself
A little peace and quiet
Some time all to myself
Some time all to myself
Don't let it slip away
A little peace and quiet

I just need a little peace and quiet
Some time all to myself
For my mental health
Don't let it slip away
