  • Last night I had a peace dream
    You know how real dreams can be
    The world was a better place
    For you and me, can't you see?

    No need for war no more
    Better things we're fighting for
    No more hunger, no more pain
    I hope I have that dream again

    Can you imagine all of this coming through?
    It's really up to all of us to do
    Just like John Lennon said in Amsterdam from his bed
    "One day the world will wake up to see the reality"

    Last night I had a peace dream
    You know how real dreams can be
    The world was a better place
    For you and me, can't you see?

    No need for war no more
    Better things we're fighting for
    No more hunger, no more pain
    I hope the dream comes true someday

    So try to imagine
    If we give peace a chance
    All the world could be living in harmony
    One day our dream could be reality, reality

    Last night I had a peace dream
    You know how real dreams can be
    The world was a better place
    For you and me

    No need for war no more
    Better things we're fighting for
    No more hunger, no more pain
    We'll make our dream come true someday Writer/s: GARY TOLBERT NICHOLSON, GARY WRIGHT, RICHARD STARKEY
