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, no, not just for, no, not just for   No, not just for, just for everyone      Just for, just for, just for everyone
