"It's a Small World"

Lyrics and Music by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman

 

It's a world of laughter,
    a world of tears.
It's a world of hope
    and a world of fears.
It's so much that we share 
    that it's time we're aware
It's a small world, after all.

It's a small world, after all.
    It's a small world, after all.
It's a small world, after all. 
    It's a small, small world.

There is just one moon 
    and one golden sun.
And a smile 
    means friendship for everyone.
Though the oceans are wide,
    and the mountains divide,
It's a small world, after all.

It's a small world, after all. 
    It's a small world, after all.
It's a small world, after all. 
    It's a small, small world.
