A Head Full Of Dreams

Lyrics

“
I’m sorry but I don’t want to be an emperor.
That’s not my business.
I don’t want to rule, or conquer anyone.
I should like to help everyone if possible.

Jew, gentile, black men, white.
We all want to help one another.
Human beings are like that.

We want to live by each other’s happiness,
not by each other’s misery.
We don’t want to hate and despise one another.
In this world there is room for everyone.
And the good earth is rich and can provide for everyone.

To those who can hear me, I say:
Do not despair.
The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed,
the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress.
The hate of men will pass, and dictators die,
and the power they took from the people will return to the people.

The Kingdom of God is within men –
not one man nor a group of men,
but in all men! In you! You,
the people have the power –
the power to create machines,
the power to create happiness!
You, the people, have the power
to make this life free and beautiful,
to make this life a wonderful adventure.
“

A wonderful adventure [repeats]

Oh, I think I landed
In a world I hadn’t seen
When I’m feeling ordinary
When I don’t know what I mean

Oh, I think I landed
Where there’re miracles at work
For the thirst and for the hunger
Come the conference of birds

Saying it’s true
It’s not what it seems
Leave your broken windows open
And in the light just streams

And you get a head
A head full of dreams
You can see the change you want to
Be what you want to be

When you get a head
A head full of dreams
Into life I just been spoken
With a head full, a head full of dreams

Oh, I think I landed
Where there’re miracles at work
When you got me open-handed
When you got me lost for words

I sing, oh-ohohoh
Oh-ohohoh
Oh-ohohoh [repeats]

A head full of dreams
A head full of dreams

Into life I just been woken
With a head full, a head full of dreams
