Just for today I wish for peace.
Just for today I wish for my heart to be at ease.
Just for today not one argument.
Just for today no one is defiant.

For one whole day I wish for peace.
For one whole day all wars would cease.
For one whole day we’d all get along.
For one whole day nothing would be wrong.

Just for today there would be love in every heart.
Just for today no soul would be in the dark.
Just for today I ask the world of this.
Just for today.

And tomorrow, I will ask again.
