Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team
We're the same in different ways
And it's true, just look at me and you
We can change the way we are
The power lives inside our hearts
We can be anything we wonna be
If coal can turn to diamonds
And sand can turn to pearls
If a worm can turn into a butterfly
Then love can turn the world
Oh, love can turn the world
The God who made you made us all
Big and little, short and tall
And that's fine 'cause it takes all kinds
If He had made us all alike
It sure would be boring life
But He knew what little time could do
If coal can turn to diamonds
And sand can turn to pearls
If a worm can turn into a butterfly
Then love can turn the world
Oh, love can turn the world
Every Body Sing It
If coal can turn to diamonds
And sand can turn to pearls
If a worm can turn into a butterfly
Then love can turn the world
Oh, love can turn the world
