I saw Mandela walk free |
|
I saw a dream whose time has come |
|
Change my history -- so keep on dreaming |
|
Deam on dreamer, dreamer |
|
In the best of times and in the worst of times |
|
gotta keep looking at the skyline |
|
not at a hole in the road |
|
Your time will come, sister, your time will come |
|
nobody's gonna rush history, we have to ease it along |
|
-- just ease it along |
