Dreaming [Song]

DREAMING
By Designer
Arranged by Keith Prescott
Album: Hold It | MRS | T&T 1985

On the wings of slumber one night, to the future I took a flight
And a fantasy I behold, brighter days for all in this world
No more wickedness, only happiness, planet earth regains perfection
While I peered into illusion.

Chorus:
Well, I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming]
Well, I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming] I'm only dreaming
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
I'm only dreaming.

There was total integration, no discord, no colour question
A man is a man anywhere, discrimination disappear
Little white children hugging black children
In South Africa openly, walking hand in hand equally.

Chorus:
Well, I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming] I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming] I'm only dreaming
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
I'm only dreaming.

Spoken words: Genocide, greed and oppression vanished into oblivion. Hearts no longer sink in despair. Peace and love exist everywhere. Life is bliss again, no sickness no pain. No more hungry days for the poor. No more nuclear weapons for war.

Chorus:
Well, I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming]
I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming]
I'm only dreaming
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
I'm only dreaming.

Just imagine how I felt glad, when I looked and saw Trinidad
Shining like a star brilliantly, an example of purity.
All the wrongs made right, no blackouts at night
No more corruption in the land, no injustice, peace for men.

I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming] I'm only dreaming
I'm only dreaming [I'm only dreaming] I'm only dreaming
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
Don't you scream, it's just a dream
I'm only dreaming, I'm only dreaming...

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening

Blessed are her patient hills.
