Lyrics

People making lists, buying special gifts Taking time to be kind to one and all It's that time of year when good friends are dear And you wish you could give more Than just presents from a store Why don't you give love on Christmas Day Even the man who has everything Would be so happy if you would bring Him love on Christmas Day No greater gift is there than love Yeah People you don't know smiling out hello Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy It's that once a year when the world's sincere And you'd like to find a way To show the things that words can't say Why don't you give love on Christmas Day The man on the street and the couple upstairs Want you to know there's one who cares Give love on Christmas Day No greater gift is there than love Why don't you give love To someone who needs right now N-n-n-n-now, someone who needs it right now Give, ooh, ooh, ooh What the world needs is love Yes, the world needs your love Give love on Christmas Day Every little child on Santa's knee Has room for your love underneath their tree Give love on Christmas day, yeah No greater gift is there than love What the world needs is love Yes, the world needs your love Give love on Christmas Day Every Tom and Harry, every Suzie Q Needs love from someone just as much as you Give love on Christmas Day No greater gift is there than love What the world needs is love Yes, the world needs your love (Give love) yeah Yeah, give love, oh yeah If you know somebody If you know somebody who needs love, yeah (give love) Why don't you give love, give love, give love No greater gift is there than love What the world need is love Yes, the world needs your love Ah, ooh, hoo, hoo (give love), ooh, ooh, ooh
