Minnie Riperton – The Edge Of A Dream lyrics
(m. Riperton are. Rudolph)

The ripples run into the sun
And your smile blends with the clouds that flutter by me
As I sit on the edge of a dream
What do I see? What do I see?

I see the children playing in the sun
And there is love enough for each and everyone
As I sit on the edge of a dream
That's what I see! That's what I see!

Things that might be, if we look we just might see
Paint the world so brightly, let our freedom ring

Merry-go-round without a sound
I hear your song in the breeze that rock-a-byes me
As I sit on the edge of a dream
What do I see? What do I see?

I see the lord inside of everyone
Can it be my dream will really come
As I sit on the edge of a dream
That's what I see! That's what I see!

Things that might be, if we look we just might see
Paint the world so brightly, let our freedom ring

And here comes the morning sun
I wonder if my dream will really come
As I site on the edge of a dream
That's what I see! That's what I see!

    Hope, Love and Tranquility. The simplistic joy and freedom of children of all races playing in the sun. The ripples of Life. Time passing into a new day as Minnie watches sitting in that tranquil special place between reality and a dream. Quiet vision. Seeing the God's greatest gift of Love in everyone. Hoping if we just look. We will see it to. As we smile to the message in her melody, for a moment we sit in the edge of that dream with her.

    Edge of a dream means love, life and peace. The joy of children playing the sound of their laughter, how wonderful to hear. Loving life. Knowing they are cared for. Just to see the joy of life and to know that the lord is in the heart of everyone of us. If we just take the time and look into ones heart. How well and at peace the world would be as the sun brings on a new day. With the light of love, peace and joy shining though all mankind. Living and laughing together in love. Oh minnie I will always miss your love for all mankind. Know that your dream will one day become a reality. That's what I see!. Lovin you. Nessa.
