Everybody's looking for love

Everybody's looking for love
From general to warrior to the peaceful dove
Everybody's looking for love
From the humble servant, even god above

Why do we spend our lives so far apart
Too blind to see, lost in the dark
What the world needs now is a brand new start
We are all one universe, all one heart

Everybody's looking for love
From general to warrior to the peaceful dove
Everybody's looking for love
From the humble servant, even god above

What are the politicians talking about
Always wave their flags when they start to shout
What the world needs now is a turnabout
'cause the truth is waiting to be found out

Everybody's looking for love
From general to warrior to the peaceful dove
Everybody's looking for love
From the humble servant, even god above

We turn our backs on less fortunate ones
Children left starving, and the homeless are shunned
What the world needs now are its daughters and sons
To find the one answer where they thought there was none

Everybody's looking for love
From general to warrior to the peaceful dove
Everybody's looking for love
From the humble servant, even god above.
