The church doors are closed
To those who need most
The love that's inside, mmm
And the black ties, they fight
'Bout who's wrong or right
While the innocent die, mmm

An eye for an eye leaves
Everyone blind, we
We can't seem to see the way, oh
'Cause everyone's hurting
Tell me, when will we learn it
And what more can I say?

But what if we just
Love, love, love?
What if we just
Love, love?
Am I askin' too much? Oh, oh
Too many have lost their lives and
Too many tears we've cried 'cause
We couldn't seem to see the light
But what if we just
Love, love, love?

Now you're all by yourself
And you're crying for help
But they don't hear a sound
And your walls know too well
You've been living in hell
Tell me what to do now, oh

Well, don't you get tired
When you run for your life? Yeah
Oh, you don't need to this time

What if we just
(Just) love, (just) love, (just) love?
What if we just
(Just) love, (just) love, (just) love? Oh
Too many have lost their lives and
Too many tears we've cried 'cause
We couldn't seem to see the light
But what if we just
Love, love, love?
What if we just
(Just) love, (just) love, (just) love?

But what if we just love?
We just love
