Show me the meaning of the word
Show me the meaning of the word
Cause I've heard so much about it
They say you can't live without it

Welcome to the human race
With its war, disease and brutality
You with your innocence and grace
Restore some pride and dignity to our world in decline

Welcome to a special place
And our heart of stone that's cold and grey
You with your angel face
Keep the despair at bay and send it away

And show me the meaning of the word
Show me the meaning of the word
Cause I've heard so much about it
I don't want to live without it
I don't want to live without it

Oh, I want love, I want love, I want love

Welcome here from outer space
The Milky Way's still in your eyes
You find yourself a hopeless case
One who is seeking perfection on Earth, some kind of rebirth

So show me the meaning of the word
Show me the meaning of the word
Cause I've heard so much about it
Don't make me live without it

Oh, love, I want love, I want love
I want love
