Heaven please send 
To all mankind
Understanding 
And peace in mind
Then if it's not asking too much
Please send me someone to love
Someone to love
Show the world how 
To get along
Peace will enter 
When hate is gone
Then if it is not asking too much
Please! send me someone to love
I lay awake and count the world's trouble 
And my answer is always the same
That if a man not puts an end
To this damnable sin
Hate's gonna put the world in a flame

Just because I'm 
In misery
I don't beg for 
No sympathy
But if it is not asking too much
Please send me someone to love
