What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No not just for some but for everyone.
Lord, we don't need another mountain,
There are mountains and hillsides enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers enough to cross,
Enough to last till the end of time.
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love,
No, not just for some but for everyone.
No, not just for some, oh, but just for everyone.
"What the World Needs Now Is Love" is a 1965 popular song with lyrics by Hal David and music composed by Burt Bacharach. It was first recorded by Jackie DeShannon and reached number 7 in the US charts May of that year.
It has been recorded by over a hundred artists, notably Dionne Warwick, Wynonna Judd, The Carpenters, Diana Ross, McCoy Tyner, The Supremes, Barry Manilow, Ed Ames and Luther Vandross. It even made the country charts by a little known singer/songwriter, Ron Shaw, on the Pacific Challenger label in the late 1970s.

"What the World Needs Now is Love" has been used in many film soundtracks, notably Bob & Carol & Ted & Alice and For the Love of Fred (used as the film's closing theme song in both), Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery, My Best Friend's Wedding and Forrest Gump.
The first few notes of the song has also been used as a toteboard cue for the annual Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon.
A shortened version of the title is used in a biography of Burt Bacharach and Hal David by Robin Platts.
