We All Need Love

I was just alone and mad

With a suitcase in my hand

Part of the travelling band on the road

(Girl, I was always away from you)

I never needed anyone

My music, it was my fun

But I woke up late at night to regret it

Oh, oh, oh

We all need love, I swear it's true

All God's children, me and you

We all need love, I swear it's true

All God's children, me and you

Brother, brother reach out your hand

Sister, stand up, stand by your man

And let him know that you understand, you really need him

(I've always needed you, yes I do)

And the sun will shine on you

Help your love to flow on through

Life's a precious gift, my man

Don't waste it away now

We all need love, I swear it's true

All God's children, me and you

We all need love, I swear it's true

All God's children, me and you, oh yeah

There's no way, nothing in life to replace it

Ain't enough around, so you better not waste it

There's no stronger force in life, it's true

So reach out, make a little

Love, I swear it's true

All the children, me and you

We all need love, I swear it's true (I need it, and you need it)

Everybody, everybody needs a little love, it's true

(We all need love, I swear it's true) oh, yeah

Give me just a little bit of love, yeah

We all need love, I swear it's true

All the people, me and you, ooh, ooh, ooh
