If Only I Could
Tom Pulse vs. Sydney Youngblood Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Everybody all around the world, stand up all my brothers
Joining our hands, united we're stronger
Fighting for peace, caring about our loved ones
Trusting ourselves, sharing our feeling, believe me

If only I could I'd make this world a better place
If only I could I'd make this world a better place
Oh believe me, believe
Believe me, believe, if only I could

I think about the implications when alone between the sheets
When all the huggin' and kissin' is tearin' my heart apart
All people standin' hand in hand, celebratin' all different colours
Joining together, sharing their feelings, please believe me

Oh believe me, believe
Believe me, believe

If only I could I'd make this world a better place
If only I could I'd make this world a better place

If only I could

Mmm believe me, believe me
Believe me, believe

If only I could I'd make this world a better place
If only I could I'd make this world a better place




If only I could I'd make this world a better place
If only I could I'd make this world a better place
