lyrics

Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
Her tears fall down, down on us
Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
Her tears fall down, down on us
The grass holds her sweet dew
I’m here to say
The world needs you

Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
Her voice cries out, out to us
Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
Her voice cries out, out to us
As the howling storm winds blew
We’re here to say
The world needs you

The time is now
The world needs you
The time is now
The world needs you

Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
She holds you close, in her arms
Because the world needs you
Because the world needs you
She holds you close, in her arms
Like all loving mothers do
Like all loving mothers do
And you know
The world needs you
And you know
The world needs you
