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.
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.
My world, would be a beautiful place,
Where we would weave such wonderful dreams;
My world, would wear a smile on its face,
Like the man in the moon when the moon beams.
If I ruled the world,
Every man would say the world was his friend,
There'd be happiness that no man could end;
No, my friend, not if I, ruled the world.
Every head would be held up high,
There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky,
If the day ever dawned when I, ruled the world.
