I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing      I'd like to build the world a home   and furnish it with love   For apple trees and honey bees   and snow white turtle doves   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   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   It's the real thing   what the world wants today   That's the way it'll stay   with the real thing (peace and love)   It's the real thing   (I'd like to teach the world to sing)   what the world wants to see   in perfect harmony (perfect harmony)   A song of peace that echoes on    and never goes away   Put your hand in my hand let's begin today   With your hand in my hand let me find the way   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
