"Dialogue" is a song written by Robert Lamm for the group Chicago and recorded for their album Chicago V (1972). On the album the song is over 7 minutes long and is divided into two tracks. An edited version of the song was released as a single in October 1972, eventually reaching #24 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100.
In Part I, the song's lyrics are a dialogue between two young people with different views- the first person (whose lines are sung by Terry Kath) is very concerned about events of the early 1970s, and the second person (whose lines are sung by Peter Cetera) just thinks "everything is fine." Part II contains more optimistic (and activist) lyrics, including "we can make it better" and "we can change the world now".
