We all need love, we all need love, we all need love, we all need love
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
We all need love, we all need love, we all need love.
I was just a lonely man with my suitcase in my hand.
Part of a travelling band on the road (girl I was always away from you).
I never needed anyone and my music, it was my fun.
And I woke up late in life
To regret it, 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 by your man
And let them know that you understand you really need him
(I've always needed you, yes it's true).
And the sun will shine on you, help your love to pull on through.
Life's a precious gift, my friend, don't waste it away now, 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.
We all need love, we all need love, we all need love, we all need love
There's no greater thing in life to please you
In another round, so you better not waste it.
There's no stronger force in life, that's true
So reach out (reach out), take a little 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.
We all need love, I swear it's true
All God's children, me and you.
