beautiful dream

we could build a house

we could build a wall

we could move a mountain

and we could watch it fall

wouldn't it be different

if everyone could see

that everything is sacred

and everyone is free

oh

what a beautiful dream

oh

what a beautiful dream

and everyone is happy

dancing in the streets

laughing with each other

in total harmony

and no one's going hungry

when every cry is heard

we will know the meaning

of heaven here on earth

oh

what a beautiful dream

oh

what a beautiful dream

everybody's got somebody they need

as long as we're together

oh

what a beautiful dream

just a little love

just a little peace

every boy and girl

and every family

see the future coming

leave the past behind

cus' what you give away

comes back in its own sweet time

oh

what a beautiful dream

oh

what a beautiful dream

everybody's got somebody they need

as long as we're together

oh

what a beautiful dream
