Lea Salonga - I'd Like to Teach The World to Sing lyrics

rate me

(r. cook/r. greenway/b. backer/b. davis)

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

In perfect harmony

I'd like to hold it in my arms

And keep it company

(that's the song I hear)

I'd like to see the world for once

(let the world sing today)

All standing hand in hand

And hear them echo through the hills

For peace throughout the land

That's the song I hear

(that's the song I hear)

Let the world sing today

(let the whole wide world keep singing)

A song of peace that echoes on

And never goes away

(repeat 1st stanza and chorus)

Put your hand in my hand

Let's begin today

Put your hand in my hand

Help me find a way

(repeat chorus til fade)
