Heaven, please send to all mankind
understanding and peace of mind
but if it's not asking too much
please send me someone to love
Show the world how to get along
Peace will enter when hate is gone
but, if it's not asking too much
please send me someone to love
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
My answer is always the same
Unless men put an end to all of the hate
hate will put the world in a flame
what a shame
Just because I'm in misery
I don’t beg for no sympathy
but if it's not asking too much
Just send me someone to love
I lay awake night and ponder world troubles
My answer is always the same
Unless men put an end to all of the hate
hate will put the world in a flame
what a shame
Just because I'm in misery
I don’t beg for no sympathy
but if it's not asking too much
Just send me someone to love
