Intro

 

Verse 1

We'd gather around all in a room
Fasten our belts, engage in dialogue 
We'd all slow down, rest without guilt
Not lie without fear, disagree sans jugement  
We would stay and respond and expand and include
And allow and forgive and enjoy and evolve
And discern and inquire and accept and admit
And divulge and open and reach out and speak up

Chorus

This is utopia, this is my utopia
This is my ideal, my end in sight
Utopia, this is my utopia
This is my nirvana, my ultimate

Verse 2

We'd open our arms, we'd all jump in
We'd all coast down into safety nets  
We would share and listen and support and welcome
Be propelled by passion, not invest in outcomes
We would breathe and be charmed and amused by difference
Be gentle and make room for every emotion

Chorus

This is utopia, this is my utopia
This is my ideal, my end in sight
Utopia, this is my utopia
This is my nirvana, my ultimate

Verse 3

We'd provide forums, we'd all speak out
We'd all be heard, we'd all feel seen  
We'd rise post-obstacle more defined, more grateful
We would heal, be humbled and be unstoppable
We'd hold close and let go and know when to do which
We'd release and disarm and stand up and feel safe

Chorus

This is utopia, this is my utopia
This is my ideal, my end in sight
Utopia, this is my utopia
This is my nirvana, my ultimate
