If I Ruled The World Lyrics
Daniel Pratt
Where have all the good men gone
The ones that held in their arms
Justice for all mankind
And listened until they heard both sides
Is this reality
We can't define what makes us care to breath
But if I ruled the world
I'd sail the seas
Looking for someone to tell me what it means
To love without taking
Hold with gentle ease
To stay where you can't see what's really beneath
If I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
Hide me where the bodies lie
The ones that gathered over time
Of saints who tried to reason why
But the world prefers a darkened sky
Oh to be naive
To think we live just to die in peace
But if I ruled the world
I'd sail the seas
Looking for someone to tell me what it means
To love without taking
Hold with gentle ease
To stay where you can't see what's really beneath
If I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
Find me on the other side
I'll be trying to lose my mind
There's no shattered pride
When you realize
That you're just tossing in the tide
But if I ruled the world
I'd sail the seas
Looking for someone to tell me what it means
To love without taking
Hold with gentle ease
To stay where you can't see what's really beneath
If I ruled the world
If I ruled the world
