What would you say if I Gave you the whole world for a day Who would you love? Who would you save? What would you say to me should I Ask you to shelter your enemy From the cold And from the rain Bear the weight of another When there's nothing to gain The world has treasures new But nothing belongs to you How do I know that you will Keep the promises you tell? Should I then trust that you can Lead this whole world? Tell me which hearts to mend should you Carry the world's burdens in your hand Would it be some? Or maybe just one If I left you alone could you Protect the weaker man from the strong Who would you right? From those who were wrong? Bear the weight of another When there's nothing to gain The world has treasures new But nothing belongs to you How do I know that you will Keep the promises you tell? Should I then trust that you can Lift this whole world? And if dark shadows follow Can you brighten tomorrow? Should I then trust that you could Lead this whole world?
