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 till
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
but just for 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
What the world needs
now is love sweet love
What the world needs
now is love sweet love
It's the only thing
