Peace In The Valley - Lyrics - Carole King

Her career began in the 1960s when King, along with her then husband Gerry Goffin, wrote more than two dozen chart hits for numerous artists, many of which have become standards, and she has continued writing for other artists since then. King's success as a performer in her own right did not come until the 1970s, when she sang her own songs, accompanying herself on the piano, in a series of albums and concerts. After experiencing commercial disappointment with her debut album Writer, King scored her breakthrough with the album Tapestry which topped the U.S. album chart for 15 weeks in 1971 and remained on the charts for more than six years.

PEACE IN THE VALLEY by Carole King & Toni Stern Looking out my window Peace in the valley just don't come Though I know that man's my brother ANd that I'm the sefish one. The hour is getting later It's time we had begun Knowing something's one thing But the race must still be run Take care of little jealousies And talk that kills for fun And hold your heart in readiness It's so easy to come undone But I think I saw a brand new light Coming over the horizon Brighter than all the others And it says all men are brothers under the skin Brothers under the skin Looking out my window Peace in the valley just don't come Though I know that she's my siter And that I'm the selfish one And I look at other people And I love the ones I can And I wonder if the dreamm will be Or turned into sand Still I think I saw a brand new light Coming over the horizon Brighter than all the others And it says all men are brothers under the skin Brothers under the skin Peace in the valley just don't come
