[Chorus] 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 Look, we don't need another mountain There are oceans and rivers Enough to cross, enough to last Until the end of time [Chorus] Lord we dont need another meadow There are corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow There are sun beams and moon beams enough to shine This I know, if you want to know [Chorus] What the world needs now Is love, sweet love What the world needs now Is love, sweet love What the world needs right about now 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, just for everyone 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
