Titel: PEOPLE HAVE THE POWER
Interpret: PATTI SMITH
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I was dreaming in my dreaming of an aspect bright and fair,
And my sleeping it was broken, but my dream it lingered near,
In the form of shining valleys, where the pure air recognized,
And my senses newly opened, I awakened to cry -
That the people have the power to redeem the works of fools,
Upon the meek the graces shower, it's decreed, the people rule.
The people have the power, the people have the power,
The people have the power, the people have the power.
Vengeful aspects became suspect and bending low as if to hear,
And the armies ceased advancing because the people had their ear.
And the shepherds and the soldiers lay beneath the stars,
Exchanging visions and laying arms to waste in the dust,
In the form of shining valleys where the pure air recognized,
And my senses newly opened, I awakened to the cry -
The people have the power, the people have the power,
The people have the power, the people have the power.
The power to dream, to rule, to wrestle the world from fools,
It's decreed, the people rule, it's decreed, the people rule.
Listen: I believe everything we dream can come to pass through our
union,
We can tun the world around, we can turn the earths revolution.
We have the power, the people have the power,
The people have the power, the people have the power.
The power to dream, to rule, to wrestle us from fools,
It's decreed, the people rule.
We have the power, we have the power,
The people have the power, we have the power.
