I saw the time When every baby that was born Was wanted and had a place to stay warm And when the farmers could exist To feed the hungry in our midst I saw the time When the poor could still have pride And hard work paid off in time I saw the time When the homeless had a home And the old could carry on I saw the time, I saw the time I saw the time! Dream after dream, scene after time Time after time, I saw the time I saw the time When special kids got a chance And handicapped could advance I saw the time When we walked the streets without risk And families still prayed, and hugged, and kissed I saw the time When nature was so clean We could eat from the field and streams I saw the time And when the bombs would not explode And all the people got to vote I saw the time, I saw that time Oh, I saw the time! Dream after dream, scene after scene Time after time, I saw the time I saw the time When we went to the moon And disaster struck too soon I saw that time When little Samantha Smith was so brave And made that grin and call And when the Bears' Vincent Woody Paced the sidelines and coached football When John, George, and Martin walked around I saw the time When John, Paul, George and Ringo brought the sound When everybody held hands And the children smiled, mammas and daddies smiled, Grandmas and Grandpas smiled, and God smiled I saw the time! Dream after dream, scene after scene Time after time, whoa I saw the time!
