The Dream

Shawn Mullins

I fell aslep about 12:30 last night

with the remote held in my hand

I drifted off and I could see the light

I was dreaming of the Promised Land



Oh I had a dream last night

but it's all a little foggy in my head

It was something about brotherhood

and love of all mankind

I spoke with an angel

but I can't remember what she said



You know as peple we are powerless

yet we live our lives in any old way

Your people, my people,

we're all God's people,

and I don't guess it matters anyway



Oh I had a dream last night

but it's all a little foggy in my head

It was something about brotherhood

and love of all mankind

I spoke with an angel

but I can't remember what she said



I fell aslep about 12:30 last night

and I woke to the sound of the rounds of a .45

and as the ambulance pulled away

I heard a neighbor way,

"So young and so full of life."



Oh I had a dream last night

but it's all a little foggy in my head

It was something about brotherhood

and love of all mankind

I spoke with an angel

but I can't remember what she said
