Imagine That World

The traffic stands still, and I'm stuck on a highway
My mind’s drives me mad with what’s wrong about my day
The radio barks out the latest bad news
I grip the wheel tighter, to fight the road raging blues

I want to live in a world where cars drive without gas
I'll live in the present, and forgive my past
Imagine a world where enemies become friends
And I know myself beyond this noise in my head
Imagine that world

I walk in the door dragging my feet
My kid's all stressed out says he's got to compete
He needs help with his homework as I'm startin to fade
What's wrong with this picture the boy's just in third grade

I want to live in a world where from an early age
We’ll learn that life’s a river not a losing game
Picture a world where we paint with a brush
Our own watercolor with the master’s touch

Can you picture that world?

We crawl into bed and lie there awake
I bring up the bills and the money we make
We're workin more hours running for our lives
But the debt keeps on rising for us to survive

I want to live in a world where we share the wealth
Look each other in the eye and see ourselves
Where everyone has a piece of the pie
And less is more will be a part of life

I want to live in that world
Let’s step out of our shells and take hold of our lives
There are signs all around if we’ll open our eyes
Don’t miss the train comin it'll be on time
Let’s climb aboard and leave our baggage behind

I want to live in a world where we share the wealth
Look each other in the eye and see ourselves
Imagine a world where enemies become friends
And we know ourselves beyond the noise in our heads

Can you picture that world? Imagine that world; I want to live in that world,
