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 ’til the end of time

What the world needs now is love sweet love
It's the only thing that theres 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 corn fields and wheat fields enough to grow
There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine
So listen Lord, if you want to know

What the world needs now is love sweet love
It's the only thing that theres just too little of
What the world needs now is love sweet love
No not just for some, but for everyone

(piano solo)

What the world needs now is love sweet love
It's the only thing that theres just too little of
What the world needs now is love sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone
Everyone
