Love Is All We Need
Céline Dion Lyrics

She was living in a perfect house
She seemed to be living in an ideal, flawless environment.

With pictures of smiling faces
The walls were adorned with photographs of people showing happy expressions.

But there's a different story told inside
However, there exists a hidden narrative that's not visible to the outside world.

Underneath it all
Beneath the surface level is where things really happen and exist.

With the sunglasses and makeup on
She put on a shield of protective gear, almost like a facade, to protect herself from the external world.

Blaming the stairs at Macy's
She was finding excuses to blame anything and everything and could not address the actual problem.

They all knew (No one even asked, is something wrong?)
Her loved ones recognized that something was off but never bothered to inquire if anything was actually wrong.

So they wait
Her loved ones just waited around, expecting things to automatically fix themselves.

Now she's gone
She's eventually left this world, and this is a warning for us to take more notice of our loved ones.

I don't understand the concept of
The artist cannot grasp the idea of.

The power of one is stronger
Individual efforts are more influential than the collective efforts of a group.

Why don't people seem to care at all
Individuals are indifferent to issues as long as it does not personally affect them.

As long as it's not about them
As long as it doesn't become their issue or problem, people are not interested in resolving it.

I say
The singer voices their opinion or view.

I guess we've underestimated love
Probably, we undervalue love and its potency in explaining the human experience.

Or why would we hurt each other
If we really understood the importance of love, why would we end up harming each other?

Don't you find that ironic
Isn't it strange that.

When love is all we need
When the essence of human experience lies in the power of love.

He is living down his sunset strip
He has reached a stage in his life when everything is declining or leading to an end.

Singing the blues for money
He projects the sadness and pain of his life to earn a livelihood.

It's easy just to look the other way
It is convenient to ignore or overlook the issues someone else faces.

When you have it all
People who have everything have a tendency to overlook issues that others face.

He's reaching out to find a helping hand
He is urging others to help and support him.

But nobody seems to bother
Unfortunately, no one seems concerned enough to offer help.

Hear them say (It's not my problem so it's not my call)
People responding with the excuse that it's not a concern that they should be dealing with or solving.

You're on your own
You're entirely responsible for solving your own problems.

Through it all
Despite all the adversities, hurdles, and struggles that one may face.

When it all becomes too real
As soon as the problems are more than imaginary and become an actuality.

We have a tendency to be
It is natural for us as humans.

Too scared to face it
Being fearful or uncertain of attending to the matters that need attention.

It's breaking my heart to see
The situation is disheartening to witness.

When love is all we need
Love holds the power to solve most of the problems in this world.
