about

A song of hope...

lyrics

Where did the time go?
And could we have more?
How did it slip through our hands?
Who turned the lights out?
Who closed the door?
And who drew the line in the sand?

Is there an island that we can call home?
And if there is – take me there

Who told the first lie?
And who passed it on?
And who wrote it down for all time
What will we believe in
When all truth is gone
And we're left alone at the scene of the crime?

Do you know a good place where I can be me?
And if you do – take me there

Wasting away but I'm dreaming
Taking each day as it comes

How did we get here?
Did we take a wrong turn?
Can we ever go back there again?
Here's to the dreamers
We should listen and learn
Let go of the past, heal the pain

When John said 'Imagine' was he leading the way?
And if he was – take me there
Take me there
