Peeler Park

Peeler Park's where I go

When I can't keep my own head straight

I drive that long, lonely road

I've got a million things to do, but they can wait

Five o'clock in the morning

The sun ain't started to rise

But the hounds are barking inside of me

I've got a problem no one should have to hide

Oh, a problem that's been growing way down in my soul

Now I can't walk in that house until I get control

Excuse me, stranger

Do you think that it's too late?

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

Well, it wasn't always there

Or if it was, I didn't know

It kind of caught me unaware, but felt like

A place I was always bound to go

My little girl, she looks at me

The glory in her eyes

She says I miss you daddy when you're not home

I need to know you're here every morning when I rise

Oh, I'd talk to a doctor

I could talk to a friend

But I'm talking to you in this empty lot 'til the darkness ends

Well, there ain't no crystal ball out here

Ain't no screen to watch your fate

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I already know the sun's gonna rise

I'm thinkin' 'bout that day in New Orleans

And the fire that burned inside our eyes

Well, I'm thinking about that day in Reims

How Joan of Arc did what she did

Well, I'm thinking of all the women who stood up

Exposing secrets that were hid

I'm thinking of all the guys who woke up

Knowing right from wrong

I'm thinking about this gas tank emptying

Who ever knew it could be so hard to be strong?

I'm thinking 'bout that hands that reach out to those in need

I'm thinking 'bout the love born with every seed

I'm thinking 'bout my baby in bed

Man, I'm glad you were here so late

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

I got a feeling it's worth the wait

Peeler Park's where I go

When I can't keep my own head straight

I drive that long, lonely road

I've got a million things to do, but they can wait
