Heaven please send to all mankind

Understanding and peace of mind

And it it's not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

To show the world

How to get along

Peace will enter

When hate is gone

And if it's not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

REFRAIN:

I lay awake nights

And ponder a world of troubles

And the answers always

The same that unless man

Put an end to all of this

Hate will put the world in flame

Oh what a shame

Just because I'm in misery

I don't beg for no sympathy

But if it's not asking too much

Please send me someone to love

(Repeat Refrain going higher notes except last line)

Please send me

Send me someone to love....

Send me someone

Someone, ooh, ooh...

Just send me someone to love.....
