Everybody needs love

Everyday that you walk on this earth
You read it in the paper and it's on the radio
Someone is fighting and taking a life
Don't you think it's time they should know
Well I found the answer
And I want to pass it along
It will change your right from wrong

(Chorus)
Everybody needs love
Everybody needs a shoulder to lean on
Everybody needs love
Nobody needs to be alone
'Cause everybody needs love

Mamas and daddys so caught up in life
They never speak the words "I love you"
Sending their children to the school everyday
What a change that love could do
Some wait too late
Don't let it pass you by
A simple word can bring a smile

(Repeat Chorus)

Don't be so cold
When time is growing old
Someone is waiting
For us to tell them "I love you"

(Repeat Chorus)
