WHAT THE WORLD NEEDS NOW IS LOVE
Jackie DeShannon
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 mountain 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 corn fields 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 for,
Oh,
But just for
Everyone.
