We Need Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Too many brothers falling
Too many mothers cry
Too many prayers have bounced back from the sky
Too much talk and too much cheat
Too many fathers losin' sleep
Too many broken hearts we can’t make right
We need love, love, love
We've gotta fight for, we've gotta fight for
Love, love, love
We’ve got a right to, we've got a right to
Love, love, love
It's the only thing
There just ain't enough of
There just ain't enough of
Too many bridges burnin', too many battle lines
Too many wounded dreamers left behind
Too much time spent buildin' walls
Was what we found worth what we lost?
Too many pages that we can't rewrite
We need love, love, love
We’ve gotta fight for, we’ve gotta fight for
Love, love, love
We've got a right to, we’ve got a right to
Love, love, love
It's the only thing
There just ain't enough of
There just ain't enough of
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
Oh, oh, yeah
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
All we need is a little love
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
Ooh
(We need love, love, love, a little love)
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
All we need is love, yeah
Too much talk and too much cheat
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
Too many fathers losing sleep
Too many broken hearts we can’t make right
(All we need, all we need is a little love)
Oh, we need love, love, love
It's the only thing
There just ain't enough of
