Imagine
Envisioning a Harmonious World: Hank Crawford's Poetic Message
Lyrics
Imagine there's no heaven
Imagine a world without the concept of heaven.
It's easy if you try
Suggesting that it's a simple concept to envision if one makes an effort.
No hell below us
Envision a world without the idea of hell below us.
Above us only sky
Emphasizing that above us, there is only sky.
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine a world where people focus on living in the present moment.
Imagine there's no countries
Envision a world without national boundaries.
It isn't hard to do
Stating that it's not a difficult concept to imagine.
Nothing to kill or die for
Desire for a world with no reasons to kill or die for.
And no religion too
Imagine a world without religious divisions.
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
Visualize a world where people live in peace.
You may say I'm a dreamer
Acknowledging that others may perceive the speaker as an idealist.
But I'm not the only one
Expressing that the speaker is not alone in their dreams.
I hope some day you'll join us
Expressing hope that others will eventually share the same vision.
And the world will be as one
Anticipating a unified world.
Imagine no possessions
Imagine a world without material possessions.
I wonder if you can
Pondering whether the listener can envision such a world.
No need for greed or hunger
Envisioning a world without greed or hunger.
A brotherhood of man
Describing a vision of human unity.
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
Imagine a world where people share resources globally.
You may say I'm a dreamer
Reiterating that others may see the speaker as a dreamer.
But I'm not the only one
Emphasizing that the speaker is not the only one with such dreams.
I hope some day you'll join us
Expressing hope that others will join in pursuing this vision.
And the world will be as one
Anticipating a world where unity is achieved.
