What is the world coming to
When lovers can't believe
They got love comin' true
And then they up and leave
They say they will when they won't
They say I do then they don't
That ain't the way it's gotta be
With you and me

[Chorus]
Imagine that
A love that lasts forever
Imagine that
For all the world to see
That
Two people stay together
The way it outta be
Ohhhh imagine that

I don't intend to change the world
I couldn't if i tried
As long as I got you with me girl
I'd be satisfied
Lets do what we can do what we say
We'll just take it day by day
'Cause I want to prove to everyone
That it can be done

[Chorus]

Yeah

Do you believe enough to go the distance
Do you believe enough to make a stand
Do you believe enough to handle the resistance
I believe we can

[Chorus]

Mmmm hmm
Ohh imagine that
Imagine that
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh imagine that
Ohh imagine that
That
