“Beautiful Dream” appears exclusively on the Japanese edition of Detours as a bonus track. The song is a somewhat sarcastic tune idealizing a world where everyone lives in harmony, a concept Sheryl considers a “beautiful dream” because she knows it isn’t something that is achievable.
[Intro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 1]
We could build a house
We could build a wall
Well, we could move a mountain
And we could watch it fall
Wouldn't it be different
If everyone could see
That everything is sacred
And everyone is free?
[Chorus]
Oh, what a beautiful dream
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Verse 2]
And everyone is happy
Dancin' in the streets
Laughin' with each other
In total harmony
And no one's going hungry
When every cry is heard
We will know the meaning
Of heaven here on earth
[Chorus]
Oh, what a beautiful dream
Oh, oh, what a beautiful dream
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody's got somebody they need
As long as we're together
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Bridge]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah (Ooh), yeah (Ooh)
[Verse 3]
Just a little love
Just a little peace
Every boy and girl
And every family
See the future coming
Leave the past behind
'Cause what you give away
Comes back in its own sweet time
[Chorus]
Oh, what a beautiful dream
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody's got somebody they need
As long as we're together
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Chorus]
What a beautiful dream
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Post-Chorus]
Everybody's got somebody they need
As long as we're together
Oh, what a beautiful dream
[Outro]
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
