Neil Diamond - If I Ruled The World lyrics

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 a wonderful dream

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 day ever dawned

When I ruled the world

If I ruled the world
