Time is gettin' harder and harder
More and more each day, yeah
Still I am determined that I am never gonna change my way

Thinking 'bout love the way it should be
You gotta open your eyes and you will see
About love the way it should be
You gotta make up your minds and you'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity

What happened to the love
That they are all talking about?
It's nothing but useless words
Coming from out of their mouths
Talking 'bout love the way it should be
We gotta open our eyes and we will see
About love the way it should be
We gotta make up our minds and we'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity, 
Yeah yeah 
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah yeah
Yeah 

What happened to the love

Open our eyes and we will see
About love the way it should be
We gotta make up our minds and we'll advance humanity
Humanity, humanity, humanity, yeah

Listen, people listen
You got the notion (I hope so)
Listen while I'm saying to you
You got the notion (I hope so)
A little bit of justice and peace
You got the notion (I hope so)
But bring a little love for everyone, yeah
You got the notion (our hope's on)
You got the notion
You got the notion (our hope's on)

So get in the motion

You got the notion (I hope so)
You got the notion oh
