Christy Moore - Peace in the Valley Once Again lyrics
[Christy Moore - Peace in the Valley Once Again lyrics]
When they close down the last shopping mall
Crickets will sing through crumbling walls
Termites will eat through the doors
As rabbit's hop round the shop floors
Empty shelves will swarm with bees
Cash machines will sprout weeds
Lizards will crawl across the parking lot
As birds fly around empty shops
There will be peace in the valley once again
Wild flowers will grow up the mannequins
Painting them with a leafy skin
Their plastic eyes will fall to the floor
To be gathered by wild boar
Mirrors will crack in half
As wild horses gallop past
Wild doves will build their nests
On the escalator steps
There will be peace in the valley once again
Crickets will sing through crumbling walls
Termites will eat through the doors
As rabbit's hop round the shop floors
Empty shelves will swarm with bees
Cash machines will sprout weeds
Lizards will crawl across the parking lot
As birds fly around empty shops
There will be peace in the valley once again
Wild flowers will grow up the mannequins
Painting them with a leafy skin
Their plastic eyes will fall to the floor
To be gathered by wild boar
Mirrors will crack in half
As wild horses gallop past
Wild doves will build their nests
On the escalator steps
There will be peace in the valley once again
