There's a dream on the wind
Sweeping all my thoughts away
Just like on a whim
And you can have your turn
Take a leaf from any book
That speaks in lessons learned
There is a road we all must travel on
As it sweeps around the bend
To a greater reward beyond
And you can have your share
It's waiting just for you
Just waiting for you there
Oh! this life can be but a memory
And the strife like water over sand
For in this world of conflicting views
Only with love will we ever understand
That there's a hope that burns in every heart
And it's kept alive through faith
So maybe that's a start
Even now no matter how it goes
You can't supress the feeling
Because it just grows and grows
Oh! this life can be but a memory
And the strife like water over sand
For in this world of conflicting views
Only with love will we ever understand

This seems a very thoughtful contemplation. As if you were sitting on a riverbank in the haze of a summer afternoon composing your thoughts. Very pretty.
