(Dolly Parton - Buck Trent)

Things seem to worsen as time goes along
We stand bewildered and ask what is wrong
We say it's a pity but that's not enough
We've asked a question and the answer is love.

The answer is love to all of the problems we face
We can't solve our problems still we rid out hearts of hate
We can't fight our brothers and get blessings from above
We have asked a question and the answer is love.

--- Instrumental ---

People are hungry with no clothes to wear
How can they survive if nobody cares
Still we've refused them when they turn to us
That's not the answer the answer is love.

The answer is love to all of the problems we face
We can't solve our problems still we rid out hearts of hate
We can't fight our brothers and get blessings from above
We have asked a question and the answer is love.

We have asked a question and the answer is love...
