Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Hey kids turn off the tv, no i don't want to watch
the evening news so come on over here and sit down
next to me, and let your momma look at you, and you and you.

your beautiful faces that i wanna keep safe as long
as i can, i'm telling you right now,
there's gonna be peace in this house,
there's gonna be peace in this house.
there's gonna be some tender talkin and sweet little
nothings that add up to the somethings we can do without,there's
gonna be peace in this house some belief in this house.
every good thing that ever happens, happens from the inside out

i'm telling you now, there's gonna be peace in this house

did i tell you today that i love you,
you're the reasons for everything i do and sometimes
i think the only hope for this world is the love in you, and you and you.

let's try to be patient

let's all play nice

cause everyone's gonna get a slice of this pie

there's gonna be piece in this house

there's gonna be piece in this house

gonna be some tender talkins

sweet little nothings that add up to the somethings we can do without

there's gonna be peace in this house

some belief in this house

every good thing that ever happens

happens from the inside out





i'm telling you now, there's gonna be peace in this house

Miss wynonna Judd my name is Frances Felan i am a 50 year old woman.
I want you to know that you have a very special gift and too me and very many that you will always be number 1 in my heart ❤️.
I know that i am too old now to even think of being a singer because i love you and i love to sing it is my passion and it's what helps me feel better when things are so hard just to survive.

And I always always wanted you to hear me sing just once just once in my life would be one of the biggest dreams to ever come true in my life.
I know that that will never happen.
But it can't hurt to dream. My husband always wanted to move me up in Nashville Tennessee he wanted me to be close to where the Grand Ole Opry is thinking that maybe someone would hear me singing like how I sound. And as I said I always wanted you to hear me saying but I don't know how to go about that so because I don't have the knowledge and I'm not the most smartest thing in the world I gave up. Number one because it takes a lot of money and that's just something I don't have. It would be so wonderful to have one dream of mine come true but that takes a lot of money I've never even been on an airplane our helicopter or anything that goes in the air. But if it was to be able to come see you as scared as I am to be on an airplane I would in a heartbeat 💓 because wynonna Judd you are number one regardless of what anybody else has to say yours truly your loving fan.

Mrs. Frances Felan.❤❤❤

My little Grace, my little Elijah, my Zack
I don't know about you but I want peace
Hmm, what a concept, sweet peace
Hey kids turn off the TV
No, I don't wanna watch the evening news
So come on over here and sit down next to me
And let your momma look at you and you and you
And your beautiful faces
That I wanna keep safe as
Long as I can, I'm telling you right now
There's gonna be peace in this house
There's gonna be peace in this house
Gonna be some tender talkin' and some sweet little nothings
That add up to the somethings we can live without
There's gonna be peace in this house
Some belief in this house
And every good thing that ever happens
Happens from the inside out, I'm telling you now
There's gonna be peace in this house
Did I tell you today that I love you?
You're the reasons for everything I do
And sometimes I think the only hope for this world
Is the love in you, and you and you
So let's try to be patient and let's all play nice
'Cause everybody's gonna get
Get a little slice of this pie
There's gonna be peace in this house
There's gonna be peace in this house
Gonna be some tender talkin' and some sweet little nothings
That add up to the somethings we can live without
There's gonna be peace in this house
Some belief in this house
And every good thing that ever happens
Starts from the inside out, I'm telling you now
There's gonna be peace in this house
Are you listening?
Sweet peace
And every good thing that ever happens
Starts from the inside out, I'm telling you now
There's gonna be peace in this house
Amen

My thoughts are with the kids, Wynonna. This song rings truth in ways only Wynonna can process herself as a daughter, as a mother. Freedom within loss is many layers, a roller coaster of emotions.
