(R. Cook/R. Greenway/B. Backer/B. Davis)
I`d like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow-white turtle doves
Chorus:
I`d like to teach the world to sing
In perfect harmony
I`d like to hold it in my arms
And keep it company
(That`s the song I hear)
I`d like to see the world for once
(Let the world sing today)
All standing hand in hand
And hear them echo through the hills
For peace throughout the land
That`s the song I hear
(That`s the song I hear)
Let the world sing today
(Let the whole wide world keep singing)
A song of peace that echoes on
And never goes away
(Repeat 1st stanza and Chorus)
Put your hand in my hand
Let`s begin today
Put your hand in my hand
Help me find a way
(Repeat Chorus til fade)
