thistlechaserNow I've been happy lately, thinking about the good things to come
And I believe it could be, something good has begun
Oh I've been smiling lately, dreaming about the world as one
And I believe it could be, some day it's going to come
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again
(Song starts one minute in, taken from the Nobel Concert in 2006.)
Now I've been crying lately, thinking about the world as it is
Why must we go on hating, why can't we live in bliss
Cause out on the edge of darkness, there rides a peace train
Oh peace train take this country, come take me home again
I can't think of a better (or more beautiful) song for tonight. I hope 2012 is full of only good things for my friends and my country (and your country, if it's different than mine). Peace, love, friendship, stability, all should be basic human rights, and I wish them in spades to all of you. I hope everyone finds whatever it is they're looking for in 2012. Have a great New Year's Eve everyone, and thanks to you all for being a friend.
