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 and the moon has when the moon beams <♪> 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 Every hand would be held up high There'd be sunshine in everyones sky If the day ever dawned will I rule the world
