Lyrics

[Verse 1]
People makin' lists, buyin' special gifts
Takin' time to be kind to one and all
It's that time of year when good friends are dear
And you wish you could give more than just presents from a store
[Verse 2]
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
Even the man who has everything would be so happy
If you would bring him love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love
[Verse 3]
People you don't know smile and nod hello
Everywhere there's an air of Christmas joy
It's that once a year when the world's sincere and you'd like to find
A way to show the things that words can't say
[Verse 4]
Why don't you give love on Christmas Day?
The man on the street or the couple upstairs
Wants you to know there's someone who cares
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love
[Verse 5]
Why don't you give love, love to someone who needs it right now?
Someone who needs it right now
Give, give
What the world needs is love, yes, the world needs your love
[Verse 6]
Give love on Christmas Day
Every little child on Santa's knee has room for your love
Underneath their tree
Give love on Christmas Day, yeah
No greater gift is there than love
[Verse 7]
What the world needs is love, yes, the world needs your love
[Verse 8]
Give love on Christmas Day
Every Tom, Dick and Harry, every Susie Q needs something
From someone, that's as much as you
Give love on Christmas Day
No greater gift is there than love
[Verse 9]
What the world needs is love, yes, the world needs your love
[Verse 10]
Give love, give love
