Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If only they could see
The world through your eyes
No Hate
Only Love
No Disease
No Fear
No fighting
Peace on Earth
And no excuses and
Only solutions
No one is
Better than
No one
If only they could see they could see
Lay down your weapons
And open your heart
If only they could see they could see
Peace on Earth
No hunger
No pain
No gold and
No greed
No crime
No tears
Cause Everyone chooses and
No one refuses
To stand together as one
If only they could see they could see
Peace on Earth
If only they could see they could see why
If only they could see they could see
Peace on Earth
If only they could see they could see
If only if only
No victims
No bombs
All Hope
All dreams
All caring and sharing
A light shining brightly to guide
You though the darkest darkest night
Why why can't they see they could see
The world through your eyes
If only if only they could see
Why why they could see
If only if only
Why why why they could see
If only if only why
Peace on Earth
Heaven is a place that everyone can see
Peace on Earth is not just a dream
Peace on Earth
If we could all just try
To get along
I only if only
And let the fallen Angel
Go back to where he belongs
If only they could see they could see
The world through your eyes
If only if only they could see
Peace on Earth
Why can't they see they could see
The world through your eyes
If only if only
Peace on Earth
Then we all could see
Lay down your weapons and open your heart
The world through your eyes
If only if only
Peace on Earth
Then we all could see
Lay down your weapons and open your heart
The world through your eyes
If only if only
Peace on Earth
