Show me a river that's so deep
Show me a mountain so high
I'll show you love that'll last forever
Flyin' high, so high
Ah, show me a place where dreams are for dreamers
And all the things you wish come true, yeah
I'd wish the world had all happy people
Then there'd be no more wishing to do

Oh
Sweet love
Oh
Sweet love
Oh
Woo
Sweet, sweet love

Sun shines over the rainbow
High on a hill
Take a ride on a magic carpet
And you know it's for real
The world is filled with all the lonely people
Trying to find their way
All they need is a hand to guide them
To a brighter day

Oh
Sweet love (sweet, sweet love)
Oh (well, well)
Sweet love (sweet, sweet love)
Oh
Woo, yeah
Sweet love, yeah

Sweet love that comes through the ages
Reach out and touch my soul
Give my life so much meaning
And everyone a heart of gold

Oh
Sweet love (well, well, well)
Oh
Sweet love (sweet, sweet, sweet love)
Oh
(Sweet sweet, sweet sweet love)

Oh you needed love, woo
(Sweet love)
Sweet, sweet love
(Oh)
Sweet love, well

I know you're searchin'
I know you're searchin' for a little love
A little peace and understanding
And I know it's been hard tryin' to find your way
But you got to keep on searchin' harder, day by day
'Cause I want you, and you, you, you, you, you, you, you you and you
To stand on up, yes sir
Put a little love in your heart
Or a little heart in your love
Together we can make a way
Huh, listen to me
Don't wonder too hard, oh, of what I trying to say
'Cause it's love, love's the only way

Oh, nothin' but love
Oh (love)
Sweet love (Sweet love, ow)
Oh (when you're down and out and you can't see your way)
Sweet love (and you need a friend, well)
Oh (Just call on love, love)
Sweet love (sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet love)
