Cécile McLorin Salvant - Visions lyrics

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

I'm not one who make 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 wings and fly away
To the vision in our minds?

I'm not one who make 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 wings and fly away
To the vision in our minds?
