The Big Blue Marble

I had a dream the other night Dreamt of flyin' what a sight Soared above our big blue marble At what I saw I could only marvel Inspired by a very 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 over this tranquil scene Call me a dreamer well maybe I am The way to be I understand What life's about and why we're here Make friends and spread good cheer Defining laws of right and wrong Singing a chorus of freedom's song Looking forward to a better day We can only hope we can only pray
