What the World Needs Now Songtext
von Steve Tyrell

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
And 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 wanna 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 just for everyone, everyone

What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
Sweet, sweet, sweet love

What the world needs right about now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love

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, everyone

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
