[Verse 1]
What can I do to make light of this dull, dull day?
What switch can I pull to illuminate the way?
[Pre-Chorus]
Show me one direction, I will not question again
For a warm injection is all I need to calm the pain
[Chorus]
We all need a love (Resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
We all need a love (Resurrection), just a little divine (Intervention)
[Verse 2]
What seed must I sow to replenish this barren land?
Teach me to harvest, I want you to grow in my hand
[Pre-Chorus]
Let's be optimistic, let's say that we won't toil in vain
If we pull together, we'll never fall apart again
[Chorus]
We all need a love (Resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
We all need a love (Resurrection), just a little divine (Intervention)
[Post-Chorus]
We need a love
Resurrection
(We need a love, love, love)
Just a little divine (Intervention)
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Show me one direction, I will not question again, no, no
For a warm injection is all I need to calm the pain
[Chorus]
We all need a love (Resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
We all need a love (Resurrection), just a little divine intervention
[Post-Chorus]
We need a love
Resurrection
Eh-eh
Mm-mm
[Outro]
We need a love (We need a love resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
Resurrection (We need a love resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
(We need a love resurrection, just a little divine intervention)
Resurrection (We need a love resurrection)
