Story Behind The Song
This song was written after 9/11. I, like everyone else was angry, sad, confused and left wondering what to do about it. This song doesn't directly address that day, but it was a result of those horrible events.

Lyrics
I can be what I want to be, see anything that I want to see
but there's something that's ailing me
I can go where I want to go, know anything that I want to know
but let me tell you what I really want
Peace and Love, it's something that there's not enough of
I've been searching high and low, seen it come and seen it go
I've tried to find all the reasons why,
people see the world through cynical eyes,
over population, media saturation and everyone telling lies,
Don't they know there's a place to go,
inside the heart a little love can grow,
maybe someday they'll see the light
Peace and love, is something that there's not enough of
I've been searching high and low, seen it come and seen it go
Someday, you'll see me walking on a rainbow
and someday, I know I'll find a world with a soul
Peace and Love, it's something that there's not enough of
I've been searching high and low, seen it come and seen it go
