It Was Only a Dream (But No Reason to Awake)

It was only a dream,
Up in Room 902.
Dressed in their pajamas,
Sitting up in bed,
"Let's give peace a chance,'
John and Yoko said.
It was only a dream,
But no reason to awake.

It was only a dream,
Only some words of love,
'Imagine all the people . . . '
Went the lyrics of a song,
But a bullet from a gunman,
And John Lennon was gone.
It was only a dream,
But no reason to awake.

So farewell, John,
You surely still must be dreaming,
It feels so real . . .
Or have you finally found some peaceful fields?

It was only a dream,
Although thirty years have passed,
The world's still screaming, 'war',
But there's a sweeter song,
John and Yoko's message of love,
Is still as clear and strong,
It was only a dream,
But no reason to awake.

It was only a dream,
But no reason to awake,
No reason to awake. . .
