Oh, listen Lord, if you want to know
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
No, not just for some but for everyone
No, not just for some but for everyone
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
Lord, we don't need another meadow
Lord we don't need another mountain
Enough to last until the end of time
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
No, not just for some but for everyone
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross
No, not just for some but for everyone
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
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
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
There are corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow
No, not just for some but for everyone
