[Verse 1] I wrote your name in chalk On the front step by the rye Three words in my pocket Love, peace, and truth alive You said keep it simple So I kept my hands clean One small star for supper One long road between [Pre-Chorus] I took the numbers home Turned them over slow Seven on the doorway Like a place I know [Chorus] Love, peace, and truth Keep calling me back Love, peace, and truth On the worn-out track Seven is the anchor Holding me through Love, peace, and truth Love, peace, and truth [Verse 2] By the county water Where the reeds bend low I watched your old blue jacket Fade in the radio glow You said the whole wide world Fits in a human hand If we trade the hard edge For a softer plan [Pre-Chorus] I took the numbers home Turned them over slow Seven on the doorway Like a place I know [Chorus] Love, peace, and truth Keep calling me back Love, peace, and truth On the worn-out track Seven is the anchor Holding me through Love, peace, and truth Love, peace, and truth [Bridge] If the math gets heavy And the night runs thin I hear that small bright reason Start me up again Not a perfect answer Just a fire in the grain A little more mercy In the field of pain [Final Chorus] Love, peace, and truth Keep calling me back Love, peace, and truth On the worn-out track Seven is the anchor Holding me through Love, peace, and truth Love, peace, and truth
