I´m hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don´t know
I´m hanging on to those good times, baby
Just want to let them roll
I´m gonna make it to the light and joy

I´ll tell you why
I got a woman who can take me there
the apple of my eye
oh, I just don´t know, no no, no, no
I love her so
Don´t let me see that morning paper
cause I don´t need those dues
it´s just the same old murder movie
but they call it the news
I´ll tell you what would be some story
and what would set me free
Is if the same thing happened to everybody
that just happened to me, oh,
I just don´t know, no, no, no, no
I´ll never let her go
Every time I hear somebody sneakin´
up behind whoa, I turn around
but I still hear that sound

and just when I´m about to lose my mind
Here comes my baby
singing like a nightingale
Coming my way down along that devastation
trail well tell the Lord above
she´s got a brand of love
that cannot fail
I´m hanging on to my peace of mind
that´s no lie
I´m hanging on to my special friend
the apple of my eye
my inspiration, too
she´s got a lead on my heart and
my soul and she knows just what to do
oh, I just don´t know, no ,no, no, no
No, I get so low, and my mind´s about to go
but wait a minute, here comes my baby
singing like a nightingale

coming my way down along that devastation
trail
Well, let the fires burn, let the
floods return
we will prevail
Hanging on to my peace of mind
I just don´t know
