Heaven please send to all mankind
Understanding and peace of mind
And 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
And if it's not too much
Please send me someone to love
I lay awake nights
And ponder world troubles
And the answer is always the same
That unless man puts an end to this terrible sin
Hate will put the world in 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
Please send me someone to love
Understanding and peace of mind
And 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
And if it's not too much
Please send me someone to love
I lay awake nights
And ponder world troubles
And the answer is always the same
That unless man puts an end to this terrible sin
Hate will put the world in 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
Please send me someone to love
