Imagine
The BB Band Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

The second verse, "Imagine all the people living life in peace, you. You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope some day you'll join us, and the world will be as one", calls for world unity and peace, and the idea that it's not an impossible dream but a goal that individuals should strive for.
The final verse, "Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can, no need for greed or hunger, a brotherhood of man. Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you", suggests that a sociopolitical structure without materialism or societal classes would result in a harmonious society.
