What The World Needs Now Is Love Songtext / Lyric

(Originally by Jackie DeShannon)



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 some

Oooh, but just for every, every, everyone



(What the world needs now)

Whoooo

(Is love sweet love)

Is Love

(What the world needs now)

Whoooo

(Is love sweet love)

Is love...
