[Verse 1]
It's a special world that we're living in
But we're treated like we're strangers underneath the skin
Not a baby cries and I don't feel it, too
'Cause he's a part of me just like I'm a part of you
[Pre-Chorus]
How much longer must we stand alone together?
'Cause to live this way's a crime
And we're running out of time
[Chorus]
If I had one wish we'd live as one together
All over the world
If I had one wish (one wish) there'd be peace forever
All over the world
Just one wish
[Verse 2]
There's a special place deep inside our hearts
There's an ancient flame burning brightly in the dark
And if we listen to that higher voice inside
And heed the words of love, not the words of pride
[Pre-Chorus]
No more will we fight with one another
There'll be rejoicing in the streets
And the winds of war will cease
[Chorus]
If I had one wish we'd live as one together
All over the world
If I had one wish (one wish) there'd be peace forever
All over the world
All over (Just one wish)
[Bridge]
People, I know there's a better day coming
And wishes can come true
But it's up to me and you
[Chorus]
One wish, we join hands together
All over the world, yeah, hey
If I had one wish (one wish) there'd be peace forever
All over the world
I'm talking bout the children
We've got to come together
One wish, we live as one together
All over the world, all over
If I had one wish (one wish) there'd be peace forever
All over the world
(One wish, one heart)
Just one wish
All over the world, yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
If I had one wish (one wish) there'd be peace forever
All over the world
People, I know there's a better day coming
Just one wish
We live as one together (All over the world)
One wish (one wish)
All over the world
