I'd like to build the world a home
And furnish it with love
Grow apple trees and honey bees
And snow-white turtle doves
Chorus:
I'd like to teach the world to sing (To sing)
In perfect harmony (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
(Thats the song that I hear)
Singin' along
Let the world sing today (Over and over)
I'd like to teach the world to sing (Singin' along)
In perfect harmony (Harmony)
