What The World Needs Now Is Love Lyrics - American Idol

What the world needs now is love, sweet love 

It's the only thing that there's 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 mountain 

There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb 

There are oceans and rivers enough to cross 

Enough to last till the end of time 

What the world needs now is love, sweet love 

It's the only thing that there's 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 cornfields and wheat fields enough to grow 

There are sunbeams and moonbeams enough to shine 

Oh listen, Lord, if you want to know 

What the world needs now is love, sweet love 

It's the only thing that there's just too little of 

What the world needs now is love, sweet love 

No, not just for, no, not just for, no, not just for 

No, not just for, just for everyone 

Just for, just for, just for everyone
