Our Little Dreams

I USUALLY WRITE A TUNE TO EXPRESS MYSELF
TO CHRONICLE LIFE’S FUNNY TWISTS AND TURNS
NOWADAYS WITH ALL THE HATE AND CARNAGE GOING ON
I TURN TO SONG AS MY ESCAPE
REALITY’S GETTING MUCH TOO UNREAL
I DIDN’T THINK I’D LIVE TO SEE THE DAY
THAT DEATH AND BLOOD WOULD GREET ME
EVERY TIME I WAKE
THAT’S MORE THAN ENOUGH TO NUMB ME
NOW I STILL DREAM OF A WORLD THAT BELIEVES IN LOVE
AND GIVING AND TRUSTING HUMANITY
AND I BELIEVE WE CAN ALL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
AND WE CAN STILL LIVE OUT OUR LITTLE DREAMS
OH, OUR LITTLE DREAMS
I’M PICTURING A PLANET FULL OF MOUNTAINS OF GREEN
WHERE YOU AND I CAN LIVE AMONG THE FREE
THERE’LL BE NO MORE BOUNDARIES OF RACE OR CREED
AND ALL OUR PAIN HAS DISAPPEARED
IF WE REACH OUT AND CALL EACH OTHER BROTHER
THERE’LL BE NO ANGER OR JEALOUSY OR HATE
NO MORE DEATH OR BLOOD EVERYTIME WE WAKE
WE CAN TRY TO MAKE IT WORK FROM DAY TO DAY
NOW I STILL DREAM OF A WORLD THAT BELIEVES IN LOVE
AND GIVING AND TRUSTING HUMANITY
AND I BELIEVE WE CAN ALL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
AND WE CAN STILL LIVE OUT OUR LITTLE DREAMS
OH…
NOW I STILL DREAM OF A WORLD THAT BELIEVES IN LOVE
AND GIVING AND TRUSTING HUMANITY
AND I BELIEVE WE CAN ALL MAKE A DIFFERENCE
AND WE CAN STILL LIVE OUT OUR LITTLE DREAMS
AND WE CAN STILL LIVE OUT OUR LITTLE DREAMS
AND WE CAN STILL LIVE OUT OUR LITTLE DREAMS
