Peace for Paul

Well they're crying tonight in Minnesota
There was a dream went down
On a cool morning in October
The prairie has an endless horizon
And he could see farther
There was room there for his vision
Peace for Paul and us all
Peace for Paul and us all
Peace for Paul and us all
Peace for Paul
Well they're crying tonight in Washington
For the loss of a conscience
For the loss of their least-favored son
In that marshland of wavering opinion
The bedrock of his courage
Was a lonely, noble island
And we're crying tonight across the nation
There may have never been a time
When we more desperately needed him
They say we all walk in lock-step
To the beat of the war drum
But this man raised his hand and said
"No, not in my name,"
And he spoke for me
And my future children
He left us a legacy
Of what a true hero could be
And in these untrustworthy times
He was a person we could believe in
Well they're crying tonight in Minnesota
There was a dream went down
On a cool morning in October
