dream a dream - ED ROBERTSON

Dream a dream
of a new tomorrow
when the people learn to love their fellow man.
Dare to hope
for a peaceful morning
when we've learned to walk together hand in hand.
Dream a dream
of a world united
when the nations choose to lay their weapons down.
Dare to hope
for a day of gladness
when the world can let a smile replace a frown.
If we all will dare to dream dreams
of a new and brighter day,
if we work
to make them come true,
we will surely find a way.
Dream a dream
of a world we long to see.
Dare to hope
for the day that men are free
and dreams come true.
Maybe we can make it happen soon.
Dream a dream of a new tomorrow.
Maybe someday we can see our dreams come true.

"your love" -- zwan

empty-armed
and half a soul to go

and all i wanted
was you here next to me
a little sunshine and sympathy

now everybody knows
that i've been hanging down so low
'cause now i'm feeling up
soon i'll be feeling out so cold

wondering, will you call
and now i'm feeling high
soon i'll be feeling left for dead
sometimes someone saying yes
changes what you'll bet

and all i wanted
was just to hold you close
a little sunshine
just to butter my toast
and your love next to mine

i have to let you know
that we were meant to be just right
heaven sent, not sympathized
by everybody's lie

and now i'm feeling high
now i'm feeling left so dead
kicking up the dust in bed
wondering, i guess

sunshine
sunshine
sunshine
and some tea

and your love
your love
your love next to mine

i have to let you know
i had to let you go so i
could see my life fade from your eyes
and to my surprise

that's what i wanted
it's all i wanted
it's what i wanted
me and you

sunshine
sunshine
sunshine
and some tea

that's all i wanted
it's all i wanted
that's all i wanted
it's all i wanted
