Bilingual
All around the world, every boy and every girl
Need the loving
ย
The humble and the great, even those we think we hate
Need the loving
ย
Soldiers of the queen, all the hard men that we've seen
Need the loving
ย
Babies at the breast, those in power and those suppressed
Need the loving
ย
Let's face it, you just can't hide
Your first taste'll send you reeling
Like a firework to which we're tied
Be prepared to go through your ceiling now
The loving's coming
The loving's more than just an AD man's vision
The loving's strumming
On your heart strings, so loud that you can't help but listen
Sailors on the seas, or the clergy on their knees (sailors on the seas)
Need the loving
All the rich and poor, even those we fight at war (all the rich and poor)
Need the loving
That thing that we need most of (that stuff)
That stuff we should try before we've died
Everyone is begging to be loved
With a free gift, a working heart inside
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's advertised in all the papers (straight to ya)
The loving's humming (straight to ya)
Your favorite song, but for once, it won't annoy the neighbours
ย
The loving
The loving
All around the world, every boy and every girl (all around the world)
Need the loving
ย
Cold-hearted or warm, every single person born (cold-hearted or warm)
Needs the loving
Way out there in space, think we'll find that alien race (way out there in space)
Needs the loving
And just to end the list, everything that could exist (just to end the list)
Needs the loving
The loving's coming
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's coming (straight to ya)
The loving's-
