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
No not just for some
But for everyone
Lord we don't need
Another meadow
There are cornfields
And wheatfields
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
More love
Uhh, more love
Everybody know that
(the world needs love)
Everybody
Everybody knows that
(this world needs love)
This world, the whole world
(the whole world needs love)
The whole world
The whole world
(More love, more lovin')
There's not enough
