"Visions" lyrics - CECILE MCLORIN SALVANT

People, hand in hand
Have I lived to see the milk and honey land?
Where hate's a dream and love forever stands
Was this a vision in my mind?

The law was never passed
But somehow men feel they are truly free at last
Have we really gone this far through space and time
Was this a vision in my mind?

I'm not one who make believes
I know the leaves are green
They only turn to brown
When autumn comes around

I know just what I say
Today's not yesterday
And all things have an ending

But what I'd like to know
Is could a place like this exist so beautiful
Or do we have to find our wings and fly away
To the vision in our minds

I'm not one who makes believes
I know that leaves are green
They only turn to brown
When autumn comes around

I know just what I say
Today's not yesterday
And all things have an ending

But what I'd like to know
Is could a place like this exist so beautiful
Or do we have to find our winds and fly away
To the vision in our minds
