By Peter Tork and Joseph Richards
Love is understanding,
Don't you know that this is true
Love is understanding,
It's in everything we do
In this generation,
In this lovin' time,
In this generation,
We will make the world shine
We were born to love one another
This is something we all need
We were born to love one another
We must be what we're goin' to be
And what we have to be is free
In this generation,
In this lovin' time,
In this generation,
We will make the world shine
We were born to love one another
This is something we all need
We were born to love one another
We must be what we're goin' to be
And what we have to be is free
Love is undertanding, we gotta be free
Love is undertanding, we gotta be free
