Last Night

Last night
I had too much to dream,
War and suffering had ceased,
The world finally knew peace,
Last night.

Last night
I had too much to dream,
Politicians could tell the truth,
Middle age flowed back to youth,
Last night.

Last night
I had too much to dream,
There was no more starvation
Or tropical forest deforestation,
Last night.

Last night
I had too much to dream,
The world was different, you see,
I dreamt you really loved me,
Last night.
