If we only had love
La da-da, da-da-da, da, da, da, la, la, da-da
If we only had love
La, La, la-la-la
And we give up the world
We could use our own name
If we had love
Love it's falling like rain
Then the parched desert earth
Will grow green again
If we only had love
La, la, da-da-da
Then the parched desert earth
Will grow green again
If we only had love
Or the hymns that we shout
La, la- la-la, la…
Then we'll have a way out
