John Lennon-Imagine

Apparently John Lennon was assassinated 31 years ago today.  RIP, man!  You are missed.

"Imagine" happens to be one of my favorite Beatles songs he wrote.  I especially like the line "you say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one."


I was trying to successfully embed the above video in this blog with lyrics, but it wasn't cooperating so this is the alternative.

Imagine

Writer: LENNON, JOHN 

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say 
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say 
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one

  1. Wow that means I was 6 years old when he died. And I love the song Imagine truly is an inspiring song.

  2. It made me feel kind of young because I was born the year he died.
