Peace In Mind - Joan Armatrading

Slow to be angered

Quick to forgive

No jealous state am I in

Some people get satisfaction

From being and bringing down

But you know pleasant things

Are still gonna happen

If you’re fun

Or wear a frown

So go on with your plan

I thought you were

Better than that

I know that good things

Are still gonna happen

If you lie

Or make it sound

Cold

It’s a state of mind

And know whatever happens

I need peace in mind

You’re looking for something

And I suspect revenge

All right

Get your satisfaction

Hurting me inside

But you know somehow

I saw it happening

And it’s sad

It came about

So go on with your plan

I thought you were

Better than that

I know that good things

Are still gonna happen

If you lie

Or make it sound

Cold
