Verse One
In a world of possibilities
There are so many things to be
But, in the glare of harsh realities
There's too much suffering I see
If you gave me just one wish
Only one would work for me
Nothing else could really make much sense
"Cause, Lord, I'd wish that I could heal
I'd wish that I could heal
I'd wish that I could heal
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Verse Two
Would you wish that you could fly
To the moon and back?
Or that you could be invisible
Live your life and leave no tracks?
Or that you' d be the most beautiful
And have the world lounge at your feet?
I know I'd pass on all of these
If I could only learn to heal
Chorus
Heal the hatred
Heal the wars
Clean the slates that hold the scores
Heal the health
And all the pain
Heal everything driving us insane
Heal the present
Heal the past
Heal the planet so it will last
Heal the marriage
That's on the rocks
Heal the hearts encased in locks
Heal the fears
That hold you back
And help to get your life on track
Heal the government
And corporate whores
Who rob us blind
Then lock the doors
Lord, I'll offer a great deal
If You'll help me learn to heal
Oh, I'd wish that I could heal
I wish that I could heal
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Verse Three
Would you wish for a peaceful world
And a contented heart?
Or give your wish to someone else
And give their lives a brand new start?
Would you help every dream come true
For any person in the world?
You'll do this and so much more
If you'll only learn to heal
Chorus
Heal the hatred
Heal the wars
Clean the slates that hold the scores
Heal the health
And all the pain
Heal everything driving us insane
Heal the present
Heal the past
Heal the planet so it will last
Heal the marriage
That on the rocks
Heal the hearts encased in locks
Heal the fears
That hold you back
And help to get your life on track
Heal the government
And corporate whores
Who rob us blind
Then lock the doors
Lord, I'll offer a great deal
If You'll teach us all to heal
Oh, I wish that we could heal
I wish that we could heal
I wish that we could heal
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
Hiya hey hey, Hiya hey
Hiya hey hey, HIya hey
