What the World Needs Now [Is Love]

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No, not just for some, but for everyone
Mmhmm

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
That'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 meadow
There are corn fields and wheat
Fields enough to grow (Enough to grow)
There are sunbeams and moonbeams
Enough to shine
Oh, listen, Lord (Listen, Lord)
If You wanna know (If You wanna know)

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
That'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 every
Everyone
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing (It's the only thing)
That there's just too little of (Oh)
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
(We need some love)
No, not just for some, but for everyone
Mmhmm hmm, hmm hmm
No, not just for some, but for everyone
