Give Love on Christmas Day Songtext
von The Temptations

People making list, buying special gifts
It′s time to be kind to one and all
It's that time of year when good friends are dear
And you wish you could give more
Than just a present from a store

Why don′t you give love on Christmas day?
Even the man who has everything
Would be so happy if you would bring
Give love on Christmas day
No greater gift is there than love

People you don't know smile and nod "Hello"
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
It′s that once a year when the world′s sincere
And you'd like to find a way
To show the things that words can′t say


Why don't you give love on Christmas day?
Oh the man on the street and the couple upstairs
All need to know that there′s someone who cares
Give love on Christmas day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
Yes, the world needs your love

Why don't you give love on Christmas day
Every little child on Santa′s knee
Has room for your love underneath his tree
Give love on Christmas day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
(World needs love)
Yes, the world needs your love

Why don't you give love on Christmas day
Tom, Dick and Harry and Suzy too
Need love everyday as much as you
Give love on Christmas day
No greater gift is there than love

What the world needs is love
(What the world needs love)
Yes, the world needs your love

Why don't you give love on Christmas day
