Please send me someone to love

Heaven please send to all mankind
Understanding and peace of mind
And if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love

You gotta show the world how to get along
Peace will enter when hate is gone
And if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love

I lie awake nights
I don't do nothing but count the world's troubles
And my answer is always the same
Unless man puts an end to his destructable sins
You're gonna put this world, put it in flame

Just because I'm in misery
I won't beg for no sympathy
But if it ain't asking too much
Please, please, please send me someone to love

Heaven please send to all mankind
Understanding and peace of mind
But if it's not asking too much
Please, please, please send me someone to love

I lie awake nights
And I count the world's troubles
My answer is always the same
That unless man puts an end to his destructable sin
He's gonna put this world, all in flame
Ain't that a shame

Oh, I'm in misery
Well, I won't beg for no sympathy
But if it ain't asking too much
Please send me someone to love
Oh, please, please send me, oh
Send me someone to love
