Tonight I had a
Dreamer's dream
Crazy as I am, I dreamed
With the day the earth stood still
With the day the earth stood still
It was like this
On the day that everyone
On the planet
Decided that no one was going to leave home
As if it were combined
All over the planet
On that day, nobody left home, nobody
The employee didn't go out to work
'Cause he knew that the boss was not there either
Housewife didn't go out to buy bread
'Cause she knew that the baker was not there either
And the guard didn't go out to arrest
'Cause he knew that the thief was not there either
And the thief didn't go out to steal
'Cause he knew he would not have anywhere to spend
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
And in the Churches the bells didn't toll
'Cause they knew that the faithful were not there either
And the faithful didn't go out to pray
'Cause they knew that the priest was not there either
And the student didn't go out to study
'Cause he knew the teacher was not there either
And the teacher didn't go out to teach
'Cause he knew he had nothing else to teach
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
The commander didn't go out to the barracks
'Cause he knew that the soldier was not there either
And the soldier didn't go out to war
'Cause he knew that the enemy was not there either
And the patient didn't go out for treatment
'Cause he knew the doctor was not there either
And the doctor didn't go out to medicate
'Cause he knew he had no more disease to heal
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
Tonight I had a dreamer's dream
Crazy as I am, I woke up
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still (I woke up)
In the day the earth stood still (woke up)
In the day the earth stood still (just)
In the day the earth stood still (I didn't dream awake)
In the day the earth stood still
In the day the earth stood still (in the day the earth stood still)
