I don't want to live in a world of darkness   I want to live in a world of light   I don't want to live in a world that's heartless   I want to live in a world of sight   Well you know, I want to make the world turn around      Living in a world of justice   Living in a world of shame   Living in a world of freedom   Living in a world of pain   Well you know, I want to make the world turn around      Turn the darkness into light   Turn the hunger into life   Turn the wrong into right   Put an end to the strife   Turn the blindness into sight   Save a human life   Make the world turn around      I want to live in a world of gladness   I want to know what your heart is made of   Don't want to live in a world of sadness   I want to live in a world of love   Well you know, I want to make the world turn around      Living in a world of justice   Living in a world of light   Living in a world of freedom   Living in a world of sight      I want to send a message   To every boy and girl   I want to send a message   About the world   We got to build it up   Stop tearing it down   We got to build it up   Make the world turn around
