Lyrics

While you are imagining, imagine for instance
The sights which you can take advantage of
Look at the beautiful cloud formations below you and above you
This could be heaven
Think of the colour of the sun as it shines off the clouds
In these days
You'll see the stars
In these days

In these days of cool reflection (reflection)
You come to me and everything seems alright
In these days of cold affections
You sit by me and everything's fine

This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed, this world could be fun
This could be heaven for everyone
This world could be free, this world could be one

In this world of cool deception
Just your smile can smooth my ride
These troubled days of cruel rejection
You come to me, soothe my troubled mind

Yeah, this could be heaven for everyone
This world could be fed (yeah) this world could be fun
This should be love for everyone, yeah
This world should be free (yeah) this world could be one
We should bring love to our daughters and sons
Love, love, love, love
This could be heaven for everyone

So take a seat and sit by my side a while
You know I like your style (this could be heaven for everyone)
So what can we do to clean up this mess
Just feel so helpless (this could be heaven for everyone)
So lift up your voice, at least you'll have cared
(This could be heaven for everyone)

Listen, what people do to other souls
They take their lives, destroy their goals
Their basic pride and dignity
Is stripped and torn and shown no pity
When this should be heaven for everyone

This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone
This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone
This could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone
And that is the end of this section (this could be heaven, could be heaven for everyone)
