Once there was a man who had a dream of a new world

No more empty words, just simple human fee-eelin'

He'd lie awake at night and dream of a new age fantasy

Something to believe i-in



Why?

Won't somebody te-ell me why

Doesn't anybody take the time, to try

To see the greatest dream will never-er die

In the eyes of every child?



Once there was a man who dreamt of hope

In a fair world, everyone had rights like each and every other

He'd lie awake and dream of peace, in a good world, what could be

No more than we can wonder



Why?

Won't somebody te-ell me why-y

Doesn't anybody take the time to try

To see the greatest dream will never-er die

In the eyes of every chi-ild?



Once there was a man who had a dream of a new world

All the people free and every life had mea-eaning

Some may say that dreams are the gold in a rainbow

If we never took the time to dream we'd never find the a-answer



Why?

Won't somebody te-ell me why-y-y

Doesn't anybody take the time to try

To see the greatest dream will never-er die

In the eyes of every child?



Why-y-y?

Won't somebody te-ell me why-y-y

Doesn't anybody take the time to try-y-y

To see the greatest dream will never-er die

In the eyes of every child?



Once there was a man who had a dream of a new world

Thank God some people take the ti-ime to dream
