All They Need Is Your Love

All the pain would be at ease
if only we can live in peace
All the powers of the world
will rise above us all

The sun would shine brighter
than ever before
But the children,
Why must they suffer?

Let's pick them up
when they are down
let's cheer them up
when they're all frown
all they need is our love

A guiding hand,
a tender touch,
a soothing voice,
they're not asking for a lot
all they need is your love.

I used to dream
that life would be so complete
if only,
You. Would. Believe.

But what would happen
if we don't believe?
I'm not so sure,
what could it mean?

The old man in the corner
crying alone,
Doesn't anyone have
a heart to lend?

A young mother
living all alone
working two jobs
just to pay the bills

Doesn't anybody care?

Let's pick them up
when they are down
let's cheer them up
when they're all frown
all they need is our love

A guiding hand,
a tender touch,
a soothing voice,
they're not asking for a lot
all they need is your love.
