What if you woke up in the middle of the night 
And in your bare feet you walked outside 
And realizing that you were awake that you could fly 
Out over the world 
To places that you've only heard of 
See faces that you were sold as murderers 
But just like you they're only lonely boys and girls 
Like all over the world 
What if you could lift them up? 
What if you could make it so that times weren't tough? 
So ever morning when the world woke up 
There'd only be weather on the news 
And what if you were back in bed 
With one of them floating over your head 
What do you say to your enemies 
When you don't know what it is that could have been between you? 
There ain't no blue skies over bad lands 
Even if it ain't raining in the mornings 
But you don't need to fly to understand it 
Just understand understanding
