“Peace Date” was inspired by an experience I had walking down the street in Cape Town, South Africa this past January. I saw a street vendor singing and smiling, obviously so happy that I had to engage him. I asked what he was singing about and he pointed to the sky saying, “We are light in the darkness.” Nur and I took it from there. Nur Felix is an incredible songwriter/artist from Cape Town and I was honoured to co-write this song with him. Help us spread the message around the world. You can also buy the MP3 – and when you do, every single penny raised will go towards helping Nur finish recording his CD. Follow this link to donate: http://moonlitpond.com/peace-date/
Peace Date
Hold on, love is on its way
Hold on, just another day
If we let the fire burn high
Illuminate our whole life
The love we shine will never die
Chorus
You and I are light in the darkness
Light in the darkness is who we are
You and I are light in the darkness
Light in the darkness is who we are
Freedom isn’t far away
Freedom who’ll be the ones to pay
Rise up and sing against hate
Why don’t we make a peace date
A sacred bond that’ll never break
It’s time to open our eyes
And realize we are all human,
The essence of love, we’re all chosen
For this path, this life,
This road, the truth spoken
Don’t wait,
Let’s make the peace date
