[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 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 crime No more will we fight with one another There'll be rejoicing in the streets
And the winds of war will cease [Chorus] People, I know there's a better day coming And wishes can come true But it's up to me and you One wish, we join hands together All over the world 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 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 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
