Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me, can't you see?
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I hope I have that dream again
Can you imagine all of this coming through?
It's really up to all of us to do
Just like John Lennon said in Amsterdam from his bed
"One day the world will wake up to see the reality"
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me, can't you see?
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I hope the dream comes true someday
So try to imagine
If we give peace a chance
All the world could be living in harmony
One day our dream could be reality, reality
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
We'll make our dream come true someday
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me, can't you see?
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I hope I have that dream again
Can you imagine all of this coming through?
It's really up to all of us to do
Just like John Lennon said in Amsterdam from his bed
"One day the world will wake up to see the reality"
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me, can't you see?
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
I hope the dream comes true someday
So try to imagine
If we give peace a chance
All the world could be living in harmony
One day our dream could be reality, reality
Last night I had a peace dream
You know how real dreams can be
The world was a better place
For you and me
No need for war no more
Better things we're fighting for
No more hunger, no more pain
We'll make our dream come true someday

In Peace Dream, Ringo sings: "Can you imagine all of this coming true/It's really up to all of us to do/Just like John Lennon said, in Amsterdam from his bed."
Ringo said: "For me to write that was a normal thing to do. I knew the man. And I really believe that if you, or anyone else, had written it, it would've been weird.
"I was around when he did all that. I also wrote a song for George (Harrison). So it's just part of it for me, they've been my friends for so long."
