I look forward to the time
When it's safe to walk our streets
And we feel love and compassion
For everyone we meet
And the drugs that plague our nation
Are removed once and for all
And every teenage runaway
Can find their way back home
And the terrorists that try
To rob our world of all its best
Would be forever halted
And finally put to rest
And the old would be our treasures
Not people we ignore
And children could stay innocent
And know what childhood's for
What a great day it will be
When all thе people in the world
Livе as one big family
When the fear is stripped away
And love is here to stay
What a great day, yeah
What a great day, yeah, that will be
Uh-huh
(What a great day)
And then I dream about the time
When all homeless have a bed
And all children in the world
Can go to sleep well fed
And all those once held captive
Will celebrate the sounds
Of liberty and freedom
As those walls come tumbling down
What a great day that will be
When all the people in the world
Live as one big family
When the fear is stripped away
And love is here to stay
What a great day, yeah
(What a great day)
What a great day, yeah, that will be
(What a great day)
Uh-huh
I know I'm just one person
But I'll do all I can do
And with all of us together
We can make this dream come true, yeah
What a great day it will be
When all the people in the world
Live as one big family
When the fear is stripped away
And love is here to stay
What a great day, yeah
(What a great day)
What a great day, yeah
(What a great day)
What a great day that will be
When all the people in the world
Live as one big family
When the fear is stripped away
And love is here to stay
What a great day, yeah
What a great day it will be
Ooh, yeah, what a great, yeah, it will be
Mmm, what a great day...
