R: People need hope, people need loving
People need trust from a fellow man
People need love to make a good living
People need faith in a helping hand

1. Man has always wanted a woman by his side to keep him company
Women always knew that it takes a man to get matrimonial harmony
Everybody knows that a man who's feeling down
wants some female sympathy
Gotta have love to carry on living
Gotta have love 'till eternity

R: People need hope, people need loving...

2. Flowers in the desert need a drop of rain like a woman needs her man
If a man's in love and she says she wants the moon
Then he'll it down if he can
Somebody who loves you and somebody who cares
Isn't that what you'd call a friend?
Gotta have love to carry on living
You can have peace if you understand
