Imagine
Envisioning a World of Unity and Peace
Lyrics
Imagine there's no heaven
Contemplate a world without the concept of heaven.
It's easy if you try
Suggests that imagining a world without heaven is a simple exercise.
No hell below us
Envision a world without the existence of hell.
Above us only sky
Emphasizes a sky without hell, suggesting a peaceful, heavenly realm above.
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine a world where people focus on the present moment, living for today.
Imagine there's no countries
Picture a world without distinct nations or borders.
It isn't hard to do
Implies that envisioning a world without countries is not a difficult task.
Nothing to kill or die for
Imagine a world without reasons for violence or sacrifice.
And no religion too
Envision a world where there is no influence of organized religion.
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
Imagine people globally living peacefully and harmoniously.
You may say I'm a dreamer
Acknowledges the speaker's awareness of being considered an idealist.
But I'm not the only one
Expresses that the speaker is not alone in their visionary thinking.
I hope some day you'll join us
Expresses hope that others will eventually embrace the vision.
And the world will be as one
Believes that a united world is achievable, where everyone is as one.
Imagine no possessions
Imagine a world without material possessions.
I wonder if you can
Ponders if the listener can fathom a world without ownership.
No need for greed or hunger
Envision a world without the problems caused by greed and hunger.
A brotherhood of man
Aspires to a world where humanity forms a brotherhood, united.
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
Imagine people sharing the resources of the world collectively.
You may say I'm a dreamer
Reiterates the awareness of being seen as a dreamer.
But I'm not the only one
Stresses that the speaker is not the only one with this visionary perspective.
I hope some day you'll join us
Hopes for the eventual inclusion of others in this shared dream.
And the world will be as one
Believes that when people unite, the world can achieve a state of oneness.
