Don't know when I'll see you
Until then
Don't know much, it turns out
About who stays and who goes
Until we meet again
I bid you peace, my friend
Nothing to conquer
Nothing to defend
Peace is what we say when we say goodbye
When we say goodbye we say peace
We say peace
We say peace
Through the crooked places
Through the doldrums
There's no need to squint
Because it's plain to see
Dark of the dark
Be afraid, disconsolate
With peace wrapping you all around
Peacе wrapping you all around
Peace wrapping you all around
Peacе is what we say when we say goodbye
When we say goodbye we say peace
We say peace
We say peace
Don't know when I'll see you
Maybe nevermore
Don't know much, it turns out
About the laws of the Sibyl
So take this with you
Where you go
Keep it close
When things don't make sense
Peace is what we say when we say goodbye
When we say goodbye we say peace
We say peace
Peace is what we say when we say goodbye
When we say goodbye we say peace
We say peace
We say peace
