I'd like to build a world a home And furnish it with love Grow apple trees and honey bees And snow white turtle doves I'd like to teach the world to sing In perfect harmony I'd like to hold it in my arms And keep it company I'd like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land That's the song I hear Let the world song today A song of peace that echo's on And never goes away I'd like to see the world for once All standing hand in hand And hear them echo through the hills For peace throughout the land That's the song I hear Let the world song today A song of peace that echo's on And never goes away I'd like to teach the world to sing In perfect harmony A song of peace that echo's on And never goes away
