A Big Blue Marble

I had a dream the other night Dreamt of flying, what a sight Soared above our big blue marble What I saw, I could only marvel Inspired by the peaceful scene The oceans blue, the forests green If only man could soar so high He'd view it all with a different eye From way up there, no sign of war No sign of hunger, of nations poor Harmony reigns with joy supreme Gliding o'er this tranquil scene Call me a dreamer, maybe I am Great way to be, I understand What life's about and why we're here Making friends, spreading cheer Defining laws of right from wrong Singing a chorus of freedom's song Looking forward to a better day We can only hope and only pray I had a dream the other night Dreamt of flying, what a sight Soared above our big blue marble What I saw, I could only marvel
