You know sometimes I sit and wonder

Just how this world would be

If we had all the people laughing

And everybody living in harmony

We'd have to say sela sela

Talking to the people sela, sela



There would be no more living in desperation

And no more hatred and deceit

Tell me, can you imagine

All the children playing

And everyone dancing in the street

We say sela, sela

Talking to yourself sela, sela



You play it for the people

Yeah, for the people

It's time for everyone

To come together

I know it's hard

But this dream must come to light on

Because tonight should be

One big celebration

I'm talking to you now

Only we can make things right



We say sela, sela, sela, sela baby

Talk about, sing about, talk about sela

Talk about sela

Oh the children

Tell me about the children

We've got to help them now to survive

Well, one world

One heart is our salvation

Let us keep the dream alive



We say sela, sela, sela

I know sela, I know sela, sela, sela ...
