Lyrics

[Chorus]
Show me the meanin' of the word
Show me the meanin' of the word
'Cause I've heard so much about it
They say you can't live without it
[Verse 1]
Welcome to the human race
With its wars, disease, and brutality
You with your innocence and grace
Restore some pride and dignity
To a world in decline
[Verse 2]
Welcome to a special place
In a heart of stone that's cold and gray
You, with your angel face
Keep the despair at bay
Send it away, and
[Chorus]
Show me the meanin' of the word
Show me the meanin' of the word
'Cause I've heard so much about it
I don't wanna live without it
I don't wanna live without it
[Bridge]
Oh, I want love
I want love
I want love
[Verse 3]
Welcome here from outer space
The Milky Way still in your eyes
You found yourself a hopeless case
One seeking perfection on Earth
Or some kind of rebirth, so
[Chorus]
Show me the meanin' of the word
Show me the meanin' of the word
'Cause I've heard so much about it
Don't make me live without it
[Outro]
Oh, love
I want love
I want
Love
I want love
