(If I had my own world)

(I'd build you an empire)

If I had my own world

I'd fill it with wealth and desire

A glorious past to admire

And voices of kids out walking dogs

Birds, planes, trees, cleanest cars

If I had my own world

I'd love it for all that's inside it

There'd be no more wars, death or riots

There'd be no more police, packed parking lots

Guns, bombs sounding off

If I had my own world

I'd build you an empire

From here to the far lands

To spread love like violence

If I had my own world

I'd build you an empire

From here to the far lands

To spread love like violence

Let me feel you, carry you higher

Watch your words spread hope like fire

Secret crowds rise up and gather

Hear your voices sing back louder

If I had my own world

I'd show you the life that's inside it

The way that it glows when you find it

The way it survives with it's families

Friends or it's enemies

Let's make this a new world

I swear you can go if you want to

I know that you have that within you

Inventing the first clean and usable

God's greatest miracle

If I had my own world

I'd build you an empire

From here to the far lands

To spread love like violence

If I had my own world

I'd build you an empire

From here to the far lands

To spread love like violence

Let me feel you, carry you higher

Watch our words spread hope like fire

Secret crowds rise up and gather

Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you, carry you higher

Watch our words spread hope like fire

Secret crowds rise up and gather

Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you, carry you higher

Watch our words spread hope like fire

Secret crowds rise up and gather

Hear your voices sing back louder

Let me feel you, carry you higher

Watch our words spread hope like fire

Secret crowds rise up and gather

Hear your voices sing back louder
