paul mccartney - peace in the neighbourhood lyrics

best thing i ever saw
was a man who loved his wife
in a place where things were good
i felt peace in the neighbourhood

that feeling in the air
something was definitely there
it was a time when things were good
i felt peace in the neighbourhood

i was there, i really was.
at the centre of a love vibration.
people sharing with their friends.
helping each other out
peace in the neighbourhood
helping each other out

then i woke up from my dream
to see things as they really are
people struggling to survive
how can peace hope to stay alive?

well i was there...i felt so good
at the centre of a love vibration.
people caring for their world
helping each other out.
peace in the neighbourhood
helping each other out.
peace in the neighbourhood
helping each other out.

best thing i ever saw
i saw a man who loved his wife.

peace in the neighbourhood
helping each other out.
peace in the neighbourhood.
