I watched the Asian floods stealing souls in the mud
These generals firing drones instead of helping their own
And children sleep on the streets they got no shoes on their feet
Two trillion dollars on bombs I'm hearing war on the drums
They say they don't give a damn, raise money for Notre Dame
When mother nature is hurt and California burns
We're all going extinct, our leaders don't even blink
'Cause they're out playing golf in the sun

If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world

I talked to friends on my phone but never felt so alone
When I turn on the TV it gives me anxiety
I wanna turn it around but I'm surrounded by clowns
Who forgot to put their makeup on

If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world

If we do nothing
Then there'll be nothing good

If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world

If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world

(If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world
If we let lovers run the world, we can love the world)
