What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love<br />
it's the only thing<br />
that there's just too little of<br />
What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love,<br />
no not just for some<br />
but for everyone.<br />
Lord, we don't need<br />
another mountain,<br />
there are mountains<br />
and hillsides enough to climb<br />
There are oceans<br />
and rivers enough to cross,<br />
enough to last<br />
'til the end of time.<br />
What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love<br />
it's the only thing<br />
that there's just too little of<br />
What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love,<br />
no, not just for some<br />
but for everyone.<br />
Lord, we don't need<br />
another meadow<br />
there are cornfields<br />
and wheat fields enough to grow<br />
There are sunbeams<br />
and moonbeams enough to shine<br />
oh listen, lord,<br />
if you want to know.<br />
What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love<br />
it's the only thing<br />
that there's just too little of<br />
What the world needs now<br />
is love, sweet love,<br />
no, not just for some<br />
but for everyone.<br />
No, not just for some,<br />
oh, but just for everyone. <ref>http://m.nu/musik/world.html</ref><br />
