What the World Needs Now Is Love Lyrics

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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, oh, but just for every, every, everyone

[Outro]
(What the world needs now) Woah, oh (is love) is love (sweet love)
(What the world needs now) Oh, oh (is love) is love (sweet love)
(What the world needs now) Oh, oh (is love) is love (sweet love)
