One Vision
Queen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

God works in mysterious ways
Mysterious ways
Ah

Hey!
One man, one goal
Ha, one mission
One heart, one soul
Just one solution
One flash of light
Yeah, one god, one vision

One flesh, one bone, one true religion
One voice, one hope, one real decision
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Give me one vision, yeah

No wrong, no right
I'm gonna tell you there's no black and no white
No blood, no stain
All we need is (one worldwide vision)

One flesh, one bone, one true religion
One race, one hope, one real decision
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Yeah, whoa-yeah, oh yeah!

I had a dream when I was young
A dream of sweet illusion
A glimpse of hope and unity
And visions of one sweet union
But a cold wind blows and a dark rain falls
And in my heart, it shows
Look what they've done to my dream, yeah!

One vision
So give me your hands, give me your hearts
I'm ready! There's only one direction
One world and one nation
Yeah, one vision

No hate, no fight, just excitation
All through the night it's a celebration
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, yeah

One, one, one, one, one, one, one

One flesh, one bone, one true religion
One voice, one hope, one real decision
Give me one light, yeah
Give me one hope, hey
Just give me, ah
One man, one man
One bar, one night
One day, hey, hey
Just gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme fried chicken!
Vision, vision, vision, vision

Brian May: One vision, one guitar, one hairstyle

@vivid-_-jxtn3337

there’s 2 in the video !!

@vivid-_-jxtn3337

seems like he had a backup that day haha

@harrytravis1235

@@vivid-_-jxtn3337 Interestingly the guitar he's playing in the video IS the backup! The original Red Special is on a stand in the background. The guitar he is playing is a 1985 Guild Brian May BHM1. The Guild, unlike the Red Special, has a black headstock with a Guild logo, and black Dimarzio pickups adorned with Brian May's signature rather than the original's silver Burns Trisonic pickups.

Edit: Though I would guess that the original Red Special is the guitar being played on the recording, and Brian May is only using the Guild for the video.
