In the night between the screams
And gunfights,
I hear a sound, I hear a word
That feels right.
It speaks of joy and of love as Mans right.
With this hate all around it seems out of sight.
Im crying for John Lennon
Im crying for his dream.
Im crying for John Lennon
And for what might have been.
Im crying for John Lennon
And for this world I see.
Im crying for John Lennon
For weve forgotten peace.
Well we tried, we say we tried
In vain it seems,
To change the world and everyone
But ourselves you see.
Tell me why are we surprised
At the state of things?
When its time to do it
We just shut out the light.
Im crying for John Lennon
Im crying for his dream.
Im crying for John Lennon
And for what might have been.
Im crying for John Lennon
And for this world I see.
Im crying for John Lennon
For weve forgotten peace.
How are we gonna see
The way out,
When it seems that we
Dont believe theres a way out?
Gotta try something
Try anything to get there somehow.
Its not a dream
Its not a dream.
Take a walk on this road
With me now.
All your things, and your pride
Set em down.
Where well go, dont you know
It doesnt matter now.
Now lets come together
Come on give peace a chance!
Im trying for John Lennon
Im trying for his dream.
Im trying for John Lennon
And for what might have been.
Im trying for John Lennon
And for this world I see.
Im trying for John Lennon
To give this world some peace.
