You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love? Yeah, you thought, "What a pity"

Dream on white boy, white boy
Dream on black girl, black girl
And wake up to a brand-new day
To find your dreams have washed away

There was a time when I did not care
And there was a time when the facts did stare
There is a dream and it′s held by many
Well, I'm sure you had to see, it′s open arms

Dream on white boy (white boy)
Dream on black girl (black girl)
And wake up to a brand-new day
To find your dreams have washed away

You might know of the original sin
You might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love? Yeah, you thought, "What a pity"

Dream on white boy (white boy)
Dream on black girl (black girl)
And wake up to a brand-new day

Dream on black boy (black boy)
Dream on white girl (white girl)
And wake up to a brand-new day
To find your dreams have washed away

Dream on black boy (black boy)
Dream on white girl (white girl)
And wake up to a brand-new day
To find your dreams have washed away

(Dream on) to play with fire
White boy, black girl
(Dream on) In the name of love
Black boy, white girl

(Dream on) white boy, black girl
Black boy, white girl
(Dream on) In the name of love, yeah
You thought, "What a pity"

Yeah!
Original sin
Mmm-hmm, ha-ah, ha-ah
It's all so!
