Give Peace a Chance Songtext
von DJ BoBo

(I have a dream, I still have a dream)
Let′s give peace a chance

I tell you, now wake up or be swayed by my dream now
A world of hope and peace, I'm tryin′ anyhow
Most of us only care 'bout money making
And that's for real, the thought of it is achin′
Facin′ everyone with an open heart (oh, whoa)
We better going to start before our world's apart (yeah, yeah)
No matter where you from, no matter who you are
No matter what you do, the pain has gone too far (mm-hmm)

There′s a falling star, please achieve my dream
Peace for the world and try and grow your self-esteem
To resort to violence means hate and frustration
Coming back stronger than your own imagination
Power and money shouldn't be the temptation (oh, whoa)
But shouldn′t be love our best motivation? (Yeah, yeah)
I still can't believe this is true
Right here, right now, I haven′t got a clue (hey, hey)


I have a dream, I have a vision, you may say it's an illusion
Together we are strong, let's give peace a chance
Tell me, what will be tomorrow? Will we find a road to follow?
I still believe in love, let′s give peace a chance
Now I feel like I′m stranded, but I'm not the only one
Light the fire and give peace a chance
It′s a wonderful world, let's see it, believe in it
For tomorrow, let′s give peace a chance

Whatever happens in your life, you've got another chance
To advance yourself, grow and give a better glance
Tolerance between religions and races
Let′s talk about respect between different faces
We all are the same at the end of the day (yeah)
Rich or poor, we have to fade away (oh)
And if you're black or white, doesn't matter anyway (oh)
Hindu, Muslims, Christians, they all just pray

For freedom and a world of peace and harmony
Lord, I′m so confused about this living human tragedy
Tell me what is wrong, tell me what is right
Tell me, why are people still sufferin′ and fightin'?
People, hear me, it′s time to wake up and love (yeah, yeah)
Before it's too late, let us all free the dove (oh)
I still can′t believe this is true
Right here, right now, I haven't got a clue (mm-hmm)


I have a dream, I have a vision, you may say it′s an illusion
Together we are strong, let's give peace a chance
Tell me, what will be tomorrow? Will we find a road to follow?
I still believe in love, let's give peace a chance
Now I feel like I′m stranded, but I′m not the only one
Light the fire and give peace a chance
It's a wonderful world, let′s see it, believe in it
For tomorrow, let's give peace a chance

Is this what life was meant to be?
Sometimes we lose reality
But then I′m reachin' for the stars
And I know, and I know

I have a dream, I have a vision, you may say it′s an illusion
Together we are strong, let's give peace a chance
Tell me, what will be tomorrow?
Will we find a road to follow? (Will it be a life of sorrow?)
I still believe in love, let's give peace a chance
Now I feel like I′m stranded, but I′m not the only one
Light the fire and give peace a chance
It's a wonderful world, let′s see it, believe in it
For tomorrow, let's give peace a chance

For tomorrow, let′s give peace a chance
