why don’t we both surrender
before we both get burned
so many shots fired
so many daggers thrown

we have learned from all this menace
have we learned from all this strife

with the gun and the knife
i throw up my hands for you
and if you throw up your hands for me
what a wonderful world this could be yeah
i throw up my hands my hands for you
and if you throw up your hands for me
what a wonderful world this could be be be
i remember things you whispered and things you screamed
does it all go up in flames
so many bombs dropped so many names called
can’t you see we’ve been
living in a world of pain from all this madness
can we end it all before
this world is pulled all to pieces in a tugofwar
i fall to my knees for you
and if you fall to your knees for me
what a wonderful world this could be yeah
i fall to my knees my knees for you
and if you fall to your knees for me
what a wonderful world this could be yeah
oh let’s both make a mutual surrender
oh let’s both make a mutual surrender
why don’t we both surrender
here before we both get burned
with all the shots fired
and all the daggers thrown
there’s got to be something
we can learn from all this menace
can we learn from all this strife
can we learn from all this business
with the gun and the knife
i raise my white flag for you
and if you raise your white flag for me
what a wonderful world this could be yeah

and if you raise your white flag for me
