If I Ruled the World

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 could weave such wonderful dreams
 My world would wear a smile on its face
 Like the man in the moon has 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
