I look around at all the faces and I see, all the lonely people
looking back at me Rich, poor it dont matter were all the same
everybodys hungry in a different way,
were clawing and climbing and kicking and screaming and fightin'
but really

What the world needs now is love, love and only love
a little help from up above fit to make a
better day lets come together let our differences down
spread it all around thats what the world needs now

sometimes all it takes is just a smile, to change somebodys weather
chase the clouds out of their sky, sometimes you gotta give and
not receive sometimes you gotta live what you believe open your arms
cause thats where it starts right here with you and with me

What the world needs now is love, love and only love
a little help from up above fit to make a
better day lets come together let our differences down
spread it all around thats what the world needs now

Nobody likes the cold we all need someone to hold no one wants to be
alone
What the world needs now is love, love and only love
a little help from up above fit to make a
better day lets come together let our differences down
spread it all around thats what the world needs now ( X 3)
