We could build a house 

We could build a wall 

We could move a mountain 

And we could watch it fall 



Wouldn't it be different 

If everyone could see 

That everything is sacred 

And everyone is free 



Oh, what a beautiful dream 

Oh, what a beautiful dream 



And everyone is happy 

Dancing in the streets 

Laughing with each other 

In total harmony 



And no one's going hungry 

When every cry is heard 

We will know the meaning 

Of heaven here on earth 



Oh, what a beautiful dream 

Oh, what a beautiful dream 



Everybody's got somebody they need 

As long as we're together 

Oh, what a beautiful dream 



Just a little love 

Just a little peace 

Every boy and girl 

And every family 



See the future coming 

Leave the past behind 

Cus' what you give away 

Comes back in its own sweet time



Oh, what a beautiful dream 

Oh, what a beautiful dream 

Everybody's got somebody they need 

As long as we're together 

Oh, what a beautiful dream
