about

This song is my personal mission statement, my declaration of commitment to continue to fight for love in a world that has seemingly opposed it throughout history, and for me personally from my youth until now. I desperately believe that despite everything it WILL win in the end. From my childhood 'fairy-tale' innocence stage, through my youth and hippie years, & my missionary and volunteer worker days, until now as a music producer, composer, and singer/performer, it has & continues to be my life's goal to LIVE for LOVE, and try to help it flourish in this world and overcome all the bad.

lyrics

I dreamed when I was young
Of a better world for all;
I tried to do my part,
And live as if to say
That love will reign one day.

They fought it from the start,
Said it could not be done,
That men would never change
And there could be no way
That love would reign one day.

Bridge:
But I cannot accept,
Much less believe we’re doomed to fail
So I fight on ‘til we prevail

I know some think me wrong
“It’s foolish,” they may say;
“The evidence is strong,
The world has gone astray”--
But love WILL reign one day.

They say “Don’t be naïve,
They say, “Just open up your eyes;”
But I choose to believe
What all the prophets say
That love will reign one day.

Bridge:
And I cannot accept,
Much less believe we’re doomed to fail
So I fight on ‘til we prevail

I’m older and wiser now,
But this remains unchanged:
No matter what comes down,
What evil they create,
Or what they throw our way--
The light is sure to rise;
We’ll see it plain as day
Shining in all eyes,
When Love is come to stay
