If I had my way

If I had my way

I would have asked the sun

to borrow some cool rays

from the bashful moon 

and give relief to those 

who walk barefoot on hot summer days 

If I had my way

I would have asked the blue sky

to come down

and take away

the clouds of despair 

If I had my way

I would have asked the wind

to blow away

all the grief and greed

and fill up every heart 

with love 

and eyes full of dreams
