If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

 

If it wasn't for the happiness I'm bringing

If it wasn't for the joy up in my life

If it wasn't for this melody I'm singing

Maybe I would be more broken up inside

If it wasn't for the money and the power

If it wasn't for the superficial things

Maybe love would be the only thing that matters

Ooh, woah, and we just gotta let it in

 

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

 

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

 

The world is in an uproar, yeah

Countries are just talking about a war

Children are starving

They don't even know what for, yeah

If we learn to love each other, oh

Try to live just like sisters and brothers

A peaceful world this will be

Oh, it's a great big world, you see, yeah

 

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah (Oh)

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

 

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

If it wasn't for this, and wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

Wasn't for this, wasn't for that

It could be a better world, yeah
