Lyrics

[Verse 1]
If I ruled the world
Every day would be the first day of spring
Every heart would have a new song to sing
And we'd sing of the joy every morning would bring
[Verse 2]
If I ruled the world
Every man would be as free as a bird
Every voice would be a voice to be heard
Take my word, we would treasure each day that occurred
[Verse 3]
My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams
My world would wear a smile on it's face
Like the man in the moon has, when the moon beams
[Verse 4]
If I ruled the world
Every man would see the world was his friend, yeah
There'd be happiness that no man could end
No, my friend, not if I ruled the world
[Verse 5]
Every head would be held up high
There'd be sunshine in everyones sky
If the day ever dawned
Where I'd rule the world
[Verse 6]
Every head would be held up
There's sunshine in everyones sky
The day I ruled the world
