"Imagine" - John Lennon, Composed in 1971
JOHN LENNON LYRICS
"Imagine"
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
Where are we 40 years later? Is this world a better or worse place than when Lennon wrote these lyrics? How much have we progressed or evolved in the decades since Lennon wrote these lyrics?
As an old woman of Lennon's generation, I feel we are in a far worse situation (US and World) than when John wrote these words.
My generation will never live to see his words come true. I wonder if our children, grandchildren, or even great-grandchildren ever will?
Read John Lennon's words. THINK about every word and how it applies to everything going on today in America and the World.
