There's a heart that is broken, it's broken in pain There's a heart that is fragile it's never whole again There's a pulse and it beats with a righteous pride And the heart that once was broken can be made to recognise That we all need love Yes, we all need love Yeah, we all need love There's a pulse and it beats with a righteous pride There's a love so strong it can make wrongs right Kind of like M.L.K., when he's in the Washington Mall Like Sam Cooke singing "A Change Is Gonna Come" And we all need love Yes, we all need love Yes, we all need love Someone told me not the other day That sometimes love is going to cause you pain
But sometimes pain is the needed thing If you want to heal you've got to endure her sting And you know it's going to hurt You know love is patient, you know love is kind Does not know malice, does not know pride From the mouths of the angels, and on the lips of the wise If you want a little healing you've got to recognise That we all need love Yeah, we all need love I said we all need love Yeah, we all need love Yeah, we all need love, yes, we do We all need love I said we all need love, we need love, we need love, we need love I said love, love is all we need
