In My Dreams

I was telling a friend the world will someday be a better place He said, "You're out of your mind. Get out of my face. The rich man sings while the poor man screams. A better place? Maybe, in your dreams. I said, "You're right. Maybe in my dreams. Because in my dreams, I see it changing I see the world rearranging In my dreams we will hate no more In my dreams there will be no war In my dreams there is a world of love With blessings showered from heaven above. There are lakes and rivers and clear mountain streams I can see it all in my dreams. The bitterness you feel will all be gone There will be a brotherhood to carry on There will be charity and faith and hope And a caring heart to help us cope. There will be an end to human fears We will no longer see a mother's tears We will stand proud, we will stand tall In my dreams I can see it all. In my dreams we will know our worth In my dreams there will be peace on earth So, in a way, you're right it seems I can see it happening in my dreams."
