I dreamed I saw Lyrics
In the early, early morning
I dreamed I saw
This great city shinin'
With silver and gold
Thousands of birds were flying
And rivers like ribbons
Unrolled
Behind it this million mile rainbow
Like the promise that will
Never die
And a choir that must have numbered
Over ten-thousand
Their voices went clear through
The sky
But then suddenly it happened
And a crack in the ground
Opened wide
Dark clouds covered
The daylight
And the air was a poisonous tide
And that
City fell down
Before my eyes
It was over almost when it started
Where beauty was nothin remained
I fell to my knees in my own self-pity
My tears in the dust
Traced a stain
I wept there where no one could hear me
I cried out "Who would have sealed
My doom"
When suddenly right there
Where my tear-drops had fallen
The great miracle of life
Made a small flower bloom
I dreamed I saw
This great city shinin'
With silver and gold
And rivers like ribbons
Unrolled
Like the promise that will
Never die
Over ten-thousand
Their voices went clear through
The sky
And a crack in the ground
Opened wide
The daylight
And the air was a poisonous tide
And that
City fell down
Before my eyes
Where beauty was nothin remained
I fell to my knees in my own self-pity
My tears in the dust
Traced a stain
I cried out "Who would have sealed
My doom"
When suddenly right there
Where my tear-drops had fallen
The great miracle of life
Made a small flower bloom
