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

Oh 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
Yes 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
Everyone, everyone

Lord, we don't need another meadow
There are corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
Oh listen Lord, if You really wanna to know

What the world needs now is love, sweet love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world, what the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some, but just for every, every everyone

We all know what the world needs
We all need it
That's right
Yes all we need is love
Please, please
All we need is love
All we need is love
Real love
Love sweet love
