Yes I agree with all of you. Though, maybe the song also tells about the dreamy nature of ideals. In this case the hippie ideal. It never became true, and the singer is just thinking he "may never find such pirity and peace of mind again".. only in dreams.
The dream of unity by the way.. wasn't unique to the hippies only. Many groups have dreamed of it, but so far its just a dream. And keeping all this in mind, this song stands as a blue eyed dream of a perfect world in the youths point of view..and I .. love it
