WE ALL NEED LOVE

WE ALL NEED LOVE

We all need love, it gets us through
All the sad and bad times, old and new;
An empty heart can not go on alone,
It takes love to make a house a home.

We all need love, it's there to share
With folks who take the time to care;
It's there with friends who pause to listen
And share with us the tears that glisten.

From the time you hear a baby's first cry
For want of a cuddle or a lullaby;
To the aged folks who sit all alone
Spending their last days in a nursing home.

We all need love, from beggar to king,
Those who deny it miss the golden ring;
It's the basic need of each and everyone
From morning's sunrise 'till setting sun.

Love can't be borrowed or bought in a store,
Those who have it never need ask for more;
It's freely given and comes back to you,
We all need love to see us through!
