Neil Diamond - If I Ruled the World lyrics

If I ruled the world every day would be
The first day of Spring
Every heart would have a new song to sing
And we'd sing of the joy
Every morning would bring

If I ruled the world every man would be
As free as a bird every voice would be
A voice to be heard take my word
We would treasure each day that occurred

My world would be a beautiful place
Where we would weave such a wonderful dream
My world would wear a smile on it's face
Like the man in the moon when the moon beams

If I ruled the world every man would say
The world was his friend
There'd be happiness that no man could end
No my friend not if I ruled the world
Every head would be held up high
There'd be sunshine in everyone's sky
If day ever dawned when I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
