Lyrics

I dreamed I walked in heaven

Just the other night

There was so much beauty

So much light

Don't you wish it was true

Lord, don't you wish it was true

An angel took my hand

Said you don't have to hurry

Got all the time in the world

Don't worry

Don't you wish it was true

Lord, don't you wish it was true

But if tomorrow

Everybody was your friend

Anyone could take you in

No matter what or where you've been

But if tomorrow

Everybody had enough

The world wasn't quite so rough

Lord, don't you wish it was true

He said the world's gonna change

And it's starting today

There'll be no more armies

No more hate

Don't you wish it was true

Lord, don't you wish it was true

And all the little children

Who live happily

There'll be singing and laughter

Sweet harmony

Don't you wish it was true

Lord, Don't you wish it was true

But if tomorrow everybody under the sun

Was happy just living as one

No borders or battles to be won

But if tomorrow

Everybody was your friend

Happiness would never end

Lord, don't you wish it was true

But if tomorrow everybody under the sun

Was happy just to live as one

No borders or battles to be won

But if tomorrow everybody was your friend

Happiness would never end

Lord, don't you wish it was true

Lord, don't you wish it was true
