Perfecting Inperfections
 


Close your eyes, imagine
love is everywhere
no more pain and sorrow
heartache or despair

Children safe from predators
lovers hand in hand
close your eyes, imagine
peace throughout the land

Sickness is no longer
loved ones always near
close your eyes, imagine
laughter, 'stead of tears

Troubled times, diminished
friend and foe as one
no more crime or bloodshed
our troubled world, redone

Close your eyes, imagine
shelter for the lost
clothing poor 'n naked
amended healthcare costs

Imagine, for a moment
life without regret
happiness, excitment
springs within our step

Smiles in every corner
free of daily strife
close your eyes, imagine
sip from cup of life

Unlock doors to friendship
take down all walls between
love thy neighbor as thyself
walk with inner peace

Color makes no difference
when everybody jives
people helping people
hope and Faith alive

Hearts are free from worry
disease has long surpassed
living life in harmony
an end to war at last

Abundant food for hungry
tummies always full
money in our pockets
stop of high cost bills

I'm sitting here 'n wishing
what's best for me and you
life would be so perfect
if only it were true

We can make a difference
it starts with you and I
believe in the impossible
imagine, close your eyes
