Als we 's ochtends naar beneden komen
ligt de wereld op de mat
en die heeft gister niet zo'n leuke dag als wij gehad
toch maar even lezen
voor mijn besef hou ik het bij
maar na al dat slechte nieuws
kijk ik eventjes opzij
en ik denk
Refrein
Als de wereld half zo mooi zou zijn als jij
hoefde niemand zich nog zorgen te maken
honger, haat geweld
ze waren dan voorgoed voorbij
als de wereld half zo mooi zou zijn als jij
We zingen in de auto
want de radio staat aan
en weldra zal de klok het hele uur slaan
het journaal, hetzelfde liedje
maar dan geschreven in mineur
en dan kijk ik vlug naar jou
want jij geeft het leven kleur
en ik denk
Refrein
Was de zee nog maar zo blauw als jouw ogen
de natuur zon ongerept als je huid
waren mensen maar zo open
net als jij wanneer je lacht
het zag er hier weer stukken beter uit
Refrein
.... honger, haat, geweld
ze waren dan voorgoed voorbij
als de wereld half zo mooi zou zijn als jij
als de wereld half zo mooi zou zijn als jij
