Good songs tell a story. We can all relate to this story on some level. Peter is joined by Manon Wierenga on vocals in this very unique song. - Elton, 8 March 2008



Lyrics

I had a dream that I was with You
And in this dream
You took my hand

Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)

We walked along
The streets of Heaven
With pearly gates
And crystal sea

Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)

We came upon
Two empty places
And as we stood
You looked at me

Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)
Yes I long to be with You
(Yes I long to be with You)

You told me this was for my friend
The one I never told of You, of You, of You

Then I awoke
And knew the truth
There is one thing
I have to do

That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)
That I have to tell about You
(That I have to tell about You)

Now I tell them of Your love
All my friends they have to know
About You
Now I tell them of Your love
All my friends they have to know
About You
About You
About You

Janella2011-08-13Dreams tell a story when we sleep and for the words in the order it has been placed in this song. I see it leaves a clear view of how we have to tell two by two as they marched into the ark and out again... Longing to be with the almighty heavenly father is coming and we are here waiting and still dreaming to spread the word of his Love and Returnmay the Lord guide our paths in telling the word of GOD...

This song, in it's simplicity, just has me dreaming along in the moment, and then realizing how we must tell everyone of His love; it is our duty. Just love it, I can get lost in this one. It is beautiful! Thank you for it.

esther2008-09-30At times, we tend to forget about Our Lord in our daily life and our responsibilities as christian. this song is indeed a good reminder of what we should do as christian when we are with others. I love the simple tune and more so the lyric
Oliver Beadle2008-09-21I absoulutely love this song it is really active and makes children want to dance!!!!!!
shima2008-08-08this song emphasize Jesus wants us to tell the people that still don't know the Lord about Him. So that, they, too, can be saved like us and they would not end with where Satan will be at the end of time. Hallelujah!

Betty Burdette2008-04-27This song is so beautifully portrayed and sung. It's beauty is spirit "Deep" and makes me want to hear it over and over. It makes one aware that we not only need to tell others about Christ, but implants longing, to tell others about Him.
