What The World Needs Now

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
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

Lord, we don't need another meadow
There are cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are moonbeams and sunbeams 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
Oh, but just for everyone

What the world needs now...
Every woman, every man, every child
What the world needs now
Is love, sweet love
What the world needs now
What the world needs now
Is love, sweet love
No, not just for some
Oh, but just for everyone...
