Verse 1
[C] [Am] [F] [Am] [Bb]
- I had this dream -- in which I swam with dolphins
[F] [G] [F] [C]
In open sea a transparent blue - maybe you dreamt it too
[C] [Am] [F] [Am]
- And on the earth -- the trees grew heavy with blossoms

The rainforests had not died
[G]
And the Amazon shined like an emerald
Chorus
[C] [Bb] [F]
Somewhere -- somehow - some way
[G]
We must hold back the dawn
[C] [Bb] [Dm]
While there's -- still time to try
[C]
Keep the faith, keep the dream alive

And we recognized the light inside us
