I Had a Dream
I had a dream
That love was forever,
And life was a song
We all sang together.
I had a dream
That we all got along,
And peace filled us
Like a beautiful song.
I had a dream
There was no more violence,
And protesters complained
In expressed silence.
I had a dream
There was no more fear,
And no one had to shed
A mournful tear.
I had a dream
That hearts didn’t break,
And our dreams were something
That no one could take.
I had a dream
That hate came to an end,
And the only real treasure
Was found in that of a friend.
I had a dream
That every one believed,
And success was something
Each one of us achieved.
I had a dream
That when we die,
We became eagles
That soar across the sky.
