Caught By A Dream
I was caught by a dream when I fell asleep
I was falling or sinking into something deep
Voices surrounded the lost black sheep
The following words are the thoughts I could keep
I’m much too old to live
I’m much too young to forgive
I’m much too old to lie
I’m much too young to die
This world full of conflicts that don’t make sense
No one learns from the past in this awful present tense
Wake up! – This planet is doomed, but hey, no offence
Business as usual in the next conference
Come gather around people – stand up for your need
For climate justice and freedom – against all the greed
This earth provides enough for all to feed
Love is a flower and humans its seed
War is where death lives
Love is what the sun gives
War is where death lives
Love is what the sun gives
Absorb it to evoke something that’s worth
Esteem thy fellows and spread peace on this earth
Absorb it to evoke something that’s, something that’s worth
Absorb it to evoke something that’s worth
Esteem thy fellows and spread peace on this earth
Absorb it to evoke something that’s, something that’s worth
Build places for gatherings, shelter and retreat
Create spaces for thinking, discussing and to read
Celebrate this system’s final defeat
Free your minds, make love and respect the one you meet
I once called it home – the thing that I miss
Liars have told me steadily: “Ignorance is bliss”
I shout: “Ignorant persons make war and they dis
Persons like you with phrases like this”
“Knowledge is power” use it for our bliss
Behave wisely and avoid acting amiss
The sun wakes me up with a warm mellow, warm mellow kiss
The sun wakes me up with a warm mellow kiss
I can’t wait to come home – wherever that is
I can’t wait to come home – wherever, wherever that is
I can’t wait to come home – whatever that is
While the sun wakes me up with a warm mellow kiss
I can’t wait to come home – whatever, whatever that is
I can’t wait to come home – whoever that is
While the sun wakes me up with a warm mellow kiss
I can’t wait to come home – whoever, whoever that is
I can’t wait to come home – wherever that is
While the sun wakes me up with a warm mellow kiss
I can’t wait to come home – wherever, wherever that is
