Written By: Julia Fordham
The soldiers of my discontent march from my soul to my head
I make myself a prisoner in this my latest self made war
The angel of my higher self must be guarding someone else
Haunted thoughts made manifest so many ghosts still left to rest
I wanna give up the fight; and lose myself in your love
Give up the fight; oh to be a Prince of Peace for just one night
Trapped in this eternal quest for faith and wisdom and courage
Stranded as the sole captor the same old torture as before
I wanna give up the fight; and lose myself in your love
Give up the fight; oh to be a Prince of Peace for just one night
Undaunted and unbreakable a centred soul unshakable
My root of bondage and my release
When will I be a Prince of Peace?
The soldiers of our discontent marching since this time was sent
When will the battle ever cease?
When will we learn to walk in peace?
The lyrics PRINCE OF PEACE of JULIA FORDHAM is also present in the album Porcelain (1989)
