​
'A Tale of Inner Peace'
​
I saw a lonesome soldier,
Hangin' around the lakes,
The leaves didn't blow very strongly,
And his tears were old for his age,
But he was a child he told me,
He said his life was dead,
I saw a lonesome soldier,
Digging a grave with guitars.
​
I said turn away from the rain poor boy,
Just turn, turn, turn away,
Let the music take you away poor boy,
And sing your blues.
​
He sharpened his knife,
And he let out a cry,
I don't want to see tomorrow,
I have no friends who know I cry,
Who know I'm drowning in sorrow,
As the roses fade into the lake,
He says it's been a while,
He sharpened his knife,
And he let out a cry,
Oh why'd he have to die?
​
I said turn away from the rain poor boy,
Just turn, turn, turn away,
Let the music take you away poor boy,
And sing your blues.
​
He looked in my eyes,
And he said oh why,
Do I feel on my own?
And why the girl who breathed so sweet,
Has broken all my dreams?
I didn't mean for him to die,
I didn't mean this life,
He looked in my eyes,
And he said oh why,
The rain has turned on me?
​
I said turn away from the rain poor boy,
Just turn, turn, turn away,
Let the music take you away poor boy,
And sing your blues.
