IMAGINE
By John Lennon


IMAGINE THERE'S NO HEAVEN,
IT'S EASY IF YOU TRY.
NO HELL BELOW US,
ABOVE US ONLY SKY.
IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE
SHARING FOR TODAY, AH-HA-AH.

IMAGINE THERE'S NO COUNTRIES,
IT ISN'T HARD TO DO.
NOTHING TO KILL OR DIE FOR
NO RELIGION TOO.
IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE
LIVING LIFE IN PEACE,
YOU-OO-OO-

YOU MAY SAY I'M A DREAMER,
BUT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE.
I HOPE SOME DAY 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-OO-OO-

YOU MAY SAY I'M A DREAMER,
BUT I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE.
I HOPE SOME DAY YOU'LL JOIN US
AND THE WORLD WILL BE AS ONE.
