Yes rude boy! We deh ya! Foreigner! You hafi love it! Got to take a little time A little time to think things over Got to read between the lines In case I need it when I'm older This mountain I must climb Feels like the world upon my shoulder Through the clouds I see light shine Keeps me warm as the world grows colder In my life there's been heartache and pain And I don't know if I can face it again Can't stop now I've traveled so far To change this lonely life I want to know what love is I want you to show me I want to know what love is I know you can show me Yes love, love is what the whole world need Youths in the ghetto dem a try fi succeed Yes love, spliff, wisdom weed No have no time fi the jealousy and greed Yes love, love is what the whole world need Come together and we plant two seed(s) Yes love, spliff, wisdom weed Come together no matter color not creed Got to take a little time A little time to look around me Got nowhere to hide Looks like love has finally found me Repeat Bridge - "In my life there's been heartache and pain…" Repeat Chorus - "I want to know what love is…" Repeat Rap Section - " Yes love, love is what the whole world need…"
