I hear a voice from the past
  And my heart is beating fast
  And everything around me fades away
  I still can't believe it's true
  Tell me why did it have to be you
  Imagine you were here with us today
  
  Chorus:
  Yes I know, you were a dreamer
  But your dreams have taken shape
  And when it's all too much - I escape
  I escape now babe, let me escape
  
  I heard the news, it couldn't be worse
  And all across the universe
  People came together over you
  We're gonna have te carry that weight
  The way you met your terrible fate
  That day in the life when the bullets flew
  
  Chorus:
  Yes I know, you were a dreamer
  But your dreams have taken shape
  And when it's all too much - I escape
  I escape now babe, let me escape
  
  All you were saying
  Was give peace a chance
  And when you were playing
  You made everybody dance
  You want a revolution?
  Well all you need is love
  And all I wanna do is listen to you
  That's how I escape
  
  Late at night, begin december
  Came a shock we will all remember
  It must have been about thirteen years ago
  You shine on...Like a star
  You move the hands on my guitar
  And while it gently weeps, the tears will flow
  
  Chorus:
  All you were saying
  Was give peace a chance
  And when you were playing
  You made everybody dance
  You want a revolution?
  Well all you need is love
  And all I wanna do is listen to you
  That's how I escape
