In the
night between the screams
And
gunfights,
I hear a
sound, I hear a word
That feels
right.
It speaks
of joy and of love as Man’s right.
With this
hate all around it seems out of sight.
I’m crying for John Lennon
I’m crying for his dream.
I’m crying for John Lennon
And for what
might have been.
I’m crying for John Lennon
And for
this world I see.
I’m crying for John Lennon
For we’ve
forgotten peace.
Well we
tried, we say we tried
In vain it
seems,
To change
the world and everyone
But
ourselves you see.
Tell me why
are we surprised
At the
state of things?
When it’s
time to do it
We just
shut out the light.
I’m crying for John Lennon
I’m crying for his dream.
I’m crying for John Lennon
And for
what might have been.
I’m crying for John Lennon
And for
this world I see.
I’m crying for John Lennon
For we’ve
forgotten peace.
How are we
gonna see
The way
out,
When it
seems that we
Don’t
believe there’s a way out?
Gotta try
something
Try
anything to get there somehow.
It’s not a
dream…
It’s not a
dream.
Take a walk
on this road
With me
now.
All your
things, and your pride
Set ‘em
down.
Where we’ll
go, don’t you know
It doesn’t
matter now.
Now let’s
come together
Come on
give peace a chance!
I’m trying for John Lennon
I’m trying for his dream.
I’m trying for John Lennon
And for
what might have been.
I’m trying for John Lennon
And for
this world I see.
I’m trying for John
Lennon
To give this world some peace.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6rlrorIKOg
