Lyrics
Well, all right
I had a dream last night
That I was flying for the first time
And in the dream I could pilot my flight
With the thoughts in my mind
Since there wasn't any up or down
Everybody was all around
When we sang, we all sang together
Oh, what a beautiful sound
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
I had a dream last night that I was singing
And the sound of my voice
Seemed to come from every mountain top like it had no choice
And when my voice rose, so did the sun
When the trees sang the harmony as one
Every living soul sang the most beautiful melody ever sung
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
Before the war the only words and language said
Let there be light
Those that can see it are the ones who believe it
And put up no fight
And in the absence of fear and control
Is the sound of the surrendering soul
Louder than the dogmatic persecution
I sing it like you got that right
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is the future soul song
Listen to me now
I hear sighs, I hear whispers
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
This is between me and my Lord
You can go right on ahead and stare
'Cause never was and never will there be
Ooh, ooh, sha la la la la
Any little shame in my tree
You should do you, guess what
This is the future soul song
And let me do me
