In Birmingham, in London —
What we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears —
what we need now is love.
Walking down my street tonight, west London style…
There's something in the air tonight,
I haven't felt for a while,
I see the fear, I see the fear in your eyes,
When they keep you afraid
You believe all their lies.
In the county towns,
In football grounds —
what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division —
What we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City —
What we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears —
what we need now is love.
Walking down my street today, west London style…
There's something going on today,
Everyone's acting wild,
I see the fear, I see the fear in your eyes,
When they keep you afraid
You believe all their lies.
In Liverpool, in Glasgow —
what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division —
what we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City —
what we need now is love.
Not hate and fear, blood and tears —
what we need now is love.
When the sun goes down, on the mill towns —
what we need now is love.
Not suspicion, division — what we need now is love.
In Washington, New York City — what we need now is love.
San Salvador, me amor — what we need now is love.
