Peace Is Just A Word
Eurythmics · Boxed [2005]
Turn out the sun
I'm so tired of it turning round
Stop the world
Call it a day
Leave it all behind
Leave it that way
Peace
Is just a word
Is just a word
Stop the world
Just let it bleed
Well we've taken more
Than everything we need
Stop the world
Just shut it down
[Just shut it down shut it down]
There's no point in it
Spinning round
Peace
Is just a word
Is just a word
Stop the world
Take it any where
It's just that
Living here is more
Than I can bear
Stop the world
Just pack it in
Well we've reached the point
Where no one ever wins
No one ever wins!
Peace
Is just a word
It's just a word
