Show Them The Way |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| Please God, on this day |
| Spirits all given the strength |
| Peace can come if you really want it |
| I had a fragile dream |
| In a grey house in the Hamptons |
| I’d been there before |
| Singing songs and doing benefits |
| Was in a room alone |
| Putting on my makeup |
| Like so many things that come to me |
| The dress came across the Persian carpet |
| As I fell into the dress |
| A thought came to me |
| Into my heart |
| I have a dream |
| And a door opened |
| I turned to face the music |
| I was ready for the Kennedy’s |
| I don’t know if it was 1960 or 1963 |
| Everything was timeless, even me |
| I wasn’t old, I wasn’t young |
| I was just part of their dream |
| A shadow walked with me down the hall |
| It was Martin Luther King |
| All in shadow, all before me |
| Overwhelmed by destiny |
| Someone said, «Sing us a song |
| There’s a piano» and handed me a drink |
| The room was full of hope |
| A song would set them free |
| And I said |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| Please God, on this day |
| Spirits all given the strength |
| Peace can come if you really want it |
| I sat at the piano |
| Stared out of the shadows |
| I sang the words, «I have a dream» |
| He wasn’t my old friend John |
| I didn’t know him then |
| But he smiled at me |
| And I sang these words |
| «Whatever it takes |
| Whatever it takes to be free» |
| No, I didn’t know these men |
| But they knew me |
| It was all symbolic |
| Nothing was as it seemed |
| They all left us in a single shot |
| But they didn’t take the dream |
| They were there in that house |
| Discussing the future |
| And drinking champagne |
| I was just a piano player |
| The voice, part of their dream |
| I was thirty-five and maybe I was fifteen |
| It was just another night in the presence of Martin Luther King |
| I was just a dreamer |
| I was ready for the Kennedy’s |
| And I said |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| Please God, on this day |
| Light the fire, start it over |
| Tell the world about the dream |
| Start it up and make it real |
| Please God |
| Show him the way |
| Please God |
| Show her the way |
| Please God |
| Show them the way |
| Please God |
| Back in the room where it all began |
| My heart began to heal |
| I believe it |
| I remember the beauty of the Hamptons |
| Shadows playing in the sun |
| A voice said |
| «The dream is not over, no |
| The dream has just begun» |
| I spun around to see another shadow |
| Slipping through the door |
| And my eyes opened wide |
| «What is this all for?» |
| And the shadow said |
| «Don't forget it |
| Don’t forget what we were fighting for |
| Don’t forget it» |
| And I said |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| (It's just another night) |
| Please God, on this day |
| (Martin Luther King) |
| Spirits all given the strength |
| (Sing us a song) |
| Peace can come if you fight for it |
| (Don't forget it) |
| Think we’re just in time to say |
| (Ooh, and said, oh said) |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| (All in shadow) |
| Please God, on this day |
| (All before me) |
| Spirits all given the strength |
| Peace can come if you fight for it |
| Think we’re just in time to say this |
| Set them free |
| Room was full of hope |
| Please God, show 'em the way |
| (I believe it) |
| Please God, on this day |
| (Don't forget it) |
| Spirits all given the strength |
| (Don't forget what |
| We were fighting for) |
| Think we’re just in time to say |
| Peace can come |
| If you fight for it |
| Peace can come |
| If you try harder |
| Peace can come |
| Ooh, if you really want it |
| The dream |
| Don’t forget it |
| Please God |
| Show them the way |
