COME MY WAY

I was dreaming of a world last night, where people live in peace
I was dreaming of a world of love and harmony, and a voice said

Come My Way /:Come my way:/

An old woman came to me and said, you want a place to stay?
She grabbed my hand and said, Sister, let me show you the way

There?s respect, and no neglect, there?s joy and laughter, why don?t you

Come my way?

Walking through the forest, in the light of the moon
She said, Sister, don?t you worry, you?ll get there soon

We know the pain, we know about the rain
We?ve shed our tears, been through the darkness of our fears

Come my way?

In the stillness of the morning light we came to a place
The old Lady there beside me, tears running down my face
People gathered out there in the streets
Smiles in the face of everybody we?d meet, and they said

We know the pain, we know about the rain
We?ve shed our tears, been through the darkness of our fears, why don?t you

Come my way?

The old woman held me close, in a warm embrace
I was stunned by her beauty and amazing grace, and I said

I know the pain, I know about the rain
I?ve shed my tears, been through the darkness of my fears, I?m so glad you?ve

Come my way?

People gathered ?round us to a choir, singing this song - our heart?s desire

/: Sister, come my way, come my way :/
/: Brothers, come my way, come my way :/ Come my way
