What The World Needs Now Is Love

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

No

Not just for some but for everyone

Lord

We don't need another mountain

There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb

There are oceans and rivers enough to cross

Enough to last 'til the end of time

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

No

Not just for some but for everyone

Lord

We don't need another meadow

There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow

There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine

Oh listen

Lord

If you want to know

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

It's the only thing that there's just too little of

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

No

Not just for some

Oh

But just for every

Every

Everyone

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love

What the world needs now is love

Sweet love
