For a Day Like Today
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
There′s a dream I've been saving for a day like today
Yellow trees, Indian waters flowing softly on their way
There′s a dove in the treetops singing peace on the wind
Again again and again
It's just a dream I've been saving for a day like today
There′s some hope I′ve been saving
For a day like today
Love will come, love will conquer
Every heart that beats today
And it may not be perfect, but at least we can try
You and I, you and I, you and I
It's just some hope I′ve been saving
For a day like today
There's a song I′ve been saving for a day like today
And the words tell a story of our youngens far away
Bring them home, sings the chorus
For they're much too young to die
Must they die, must they die, must they die
It′s just a song I've been saving for a day like today
Bring them home, sings the chorus
For they're much too young to die
Must they die, must they die, must they die
It′s just a song I′ve been saving for a day like today
Just a dream I've been saving for a day like today
Just some hope I′ve been saving for a day like today
