1971年的一個清晨，約翰藍儂在英國鄉下的別墅中醒來，在洋子的陪伴下，那個寧靜的早晨，他在那架白色鋼琴上完成了這首"想像"。

這是一首屬於理想主義者的歌曲，歌詞中沒有"愛"這個字眼，反而充滿了平靜感。這是一首反宗教, 反民族主義，反常規，反戰的自由者之歌。
人類除非擺脫宗教的束縛，才能脫離那些以神為名所產生的歧視、分裂、敵視和戰爭。藍儂所要表達的不只是想像，想像然後行動才是真正的救贖。



Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
Nowhere below us
Above only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...

You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday 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 may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
