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 may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday 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 may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Dardaigh

Yes, the lyrics are just as poignant now as they were when he wrote them all those years ago, MCM and you're most welcome, Tommy. :)

I think I have to agree that the combination of Lennon and McCartney was unique, Umbriel but even if it weren't supposedly Ono breaking them up, I think possibly their own egos would have done it anyway.

They both seemed to have different visions for the type of music that they should be playing...anyway, we shall never know now.

I dont really no cos there are alot of dangerous diseases out there including cancer, asthma, heart disease, influenza, Leukemia, head poisioning, melanoma, obestity, scarlet fever, thrush, ulcers, warts and yellow fever. But of all the things i said i cant really agree which one as they are all dangerous. u might be thinking a wart isnt dangerous but they could get infected and maybe u then might need to get it froze or cut out.

hope u get the picture now and i hope u now no that there is alot of dangerous things out there and please dont just say i wish cancer or influenza didnt exist cos thats not all whats killing us.
