What the World Needs Now Is Love Sweet Love

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 for everyone.
 No, not just for some, oh, but just for everyone.
