We do a pretty good job of throwing sticks and stones    But everyone's got a closet full of skeleton bones    No need to tear each other down    'Cause we're all standing here on common ground          Chorus:    If we could love one another    We could bring Heaven down out of the sky    If we could love one another    We could bring hate to its knees tonight    Wouldn't every future be bright    If we could love one another    Love one another right          We find it easy enough loving the latest trends    Take something that's dead and make it our closet friend    Imagine what this world could be    If we worked as hard at loving you and me          Repeat chorus          Bridge:    Don't let your anger get the best of you    When you're provoked you simply refuse    Don't waste your time with retribution    Why not try making a contribution    Reach down a hand to the tired and weak    Lift up a soul with the words you speak    Shake it up with a revolution - and set the world on fire.
