Heaven please send to all mankind,
Understanding and peace of mind
But, if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love
Show all the world how to get along,
Peace will enter when hate is gone
But, if it's not asking too much,
Please send me someone to love
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
My answer is always the same
That unless men put an end to all of this,
Hate will put the world in a flame, (oh) what a shame
Just because I'm in misery
I don't beg for no sympathy
But if it's not asking too much,
Just send me someone to love
Just because I'm in misery,
I don't beg for no sympathy
But if it's not asking too much,
Please send me someone to love
