People making lists
Buying special gifts
Taking 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
Why don't you give love
On christmas day
Oh 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 love
People you don't know
Smiling out 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
Why don't you give love
On christmas day
The man on the street and
The couple upstairs
All need to know there's someone cares
Give love on christmas day
On christmas day
No greater gift is there than love
What the world needs is love
Yes the world needs your love
Why don't you
Why don't you give love
On christmas day
Oh every little child on santa's knee
Has room for your love
Underneath his tree
Give love on christmas day
On christmas day
No greater gift is there than love
What the world needs is love
Yes the world needs your love
Why don't you
Why don't you give love on christmas day
Oh 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
What the world needs is love
Yes
Why don't you give love give love
On christmas day
Oh everybody needs we need love
Why don't you give love on christmas day
No greater gift is there than love
