The World That He Sees Lyrics
[Verse 1]
There was a cold winter night
Where the dark went on forever
And the world seemed like a dream gone astray
And somehow there on this night
As the world huddled together
There a child slept at the end of the day
[Chorus]
And he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Verse 2]
What is the dream of this night?
Why does it echo forever?
Here in the cold at the end of the year
And with all our different lives
Why do we dream it together
When at the first sign of snow it appears?
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
There was a cold winter night
Where the dark went on forever
And the world seemed like a dream gone astray
And somehow there on this night
As the world huddled together
There a child slept at the end of the day
[Chorus]
And he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Verse 2]
What is the dream of this night?
Why does it echo forever?
Here in the cold at the end of the year
And with all our different lives
Why do we dream it together
When at the first sign of snow it appears?
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
[Chorus]
When he dreamed of another world
In another time and another place
Where no man has to wear a sign
Saying where he's from, saying what's his race
And he wants us to believe
This world that he sees
