What The World Needs Now Lyrics - Cat Power

[Chorus] 

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 

[Verse 1] 

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 'til the end of time

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

[Verse 2] 

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
