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


And 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


And there are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine

So 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 for everyone




Huh, more love

Uhh, more love

Everybody know that


Everybody, everybody knows that

This world, whole world


The whole world, the whole world

There's not enough

There's not enough


There's not enough
