Pipe Dream - Chad & Jeremy

Throw a pebble in the lake and watch the ripples grow

Bursting like a flower in the midstream

Try some wild guesses about the changes you have made

In the daily lives of sleepy, sunken fishes

And thus the time will come

All the people singing

Fifty thousand people

A hundred million people

Together

Standing in the kitchen or smiling on the street

Around you all the radios receiving

In a survey taken recently of babies at their birth

Seven out of ten were tuned to smiling

And thus the time will come

All the people singing

Fifty thousand people

A hundred million people

Together

Must be something there

But I don’t know, and what is more, I don’t care

You’ll never change a thing

Too few of us, too many of them

But no, the faces are beginning to show

And the hands are beginning to reach out to each other

Together

A thousand pebbles tumbling at the bottom of a stream

A thousand babies smilling in the sunshine

A thousand years of weeping at the altar of a dream

A thousand years of blind young soldiers dying

And thus the time will come

All the people singing

Fifty thousand people

A hundred million people

Together
