When the World’s at Peace

[Intro]
(When the world is at peace)
(Yeah, yeah)
(When the world is at peace)

[Verse 1]
I can see the day when its safe to walk the streets
When we learn to care for those lost in poverty
There would be no need for our daughters and our sons
To march up and down the streets singing "we shall overcome"
(Do it to me now)

[Chorus]
When the world's at peace, will it still be in one piece? (When the world is at peace)
I pray for the day when the bombs and the bullets cease (Yeah, yeah)
Come let's make a change, or leave the world in dust (When the world is at peace)
Let's be the world of love for the ones that follow us
(Do it to me now)

[Verse 2]
If we learn to love the way we learn to kill
Then love will rule the world and hate would soon be still
Some may say they love, but loves a sacrifice
Love is not a state of mind, love's a fact of life
(Do it to me now)

[Chorus]
(When the world is at peace) Hate, be still
Love, (Yeah, yeah) get behind me
(When the world is at peace) Peace, what we need
Ha, ha, peace is what we need now
