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
Show all 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 (someone to love)
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
And the answer is always the same
That unless men put an end to this terrible thing
Hate will put the world in a flame, oh what a shame
Just because I'm in misery
I'm not begging for no sympathy
But if it's not asking too much
Please, send me someone to love
Oh, someone to love
And just because, just because I'm in misery
I said I'm not begging for no sympathy
And if it's not asking too much
Please, send me someone to love
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And just because, just because I'm in misery
I'm not begging for no sympathy
