You Need Love
Danny & the Counts Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Love, love, love
Love, love, love
There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy
Nothing you can make that can't be made
No one you can save that can't be saved
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
Nothing you can know that isn't known
Nothing you can see that isn't shown
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
It's easy
All you need is love
All you need is love
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need
All you need is love (All together, now!)
All you need is love (Everybody!)
All you need is love, love
Love is all you need (love is all you need)
Yee-hai!
Oh yeah!
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah
She loves you, yeah yeah yeah
The song begins with a repetition of the word "love," which sets the tone for the entire piece. The first verse emphasizes that there is nothing that you can do or say that hasn't already been done, sung, or said before. However, this doesn't mean that you can't learn how to play the game, which serves as a metaphor for life itself. The second verse echoes the sentiment of the first, stating that there is nothing you can create or save that hasn't already been created or saved before. Nevertheless, you still have the opportunity to learn how to be yourself over time.
The chorus reemphasizes the title of the song, "All You Need is Love," and repeats it several times. The songwriters are stressing that despite the challenges and obstacles of life, love is the most crucial element that humans need. The next verse continues to emphasize that everything that you think you know or see has already been known and seen before. The final line of the verse "Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be" suggests that everything happens for a reason, and you are precisely where you are meant to be at that moment.
The song ends with a celebratory "She Loves You" chant, which is a nod to The Beatles' classic hit. The song is a testament to the value of love and its ability to bring us together and help us overcome all obstacles.

Aw, yeah!
Wear your fancy jewelry
Ride around in your Cadillac car
When you're walking down the street, little girl
Everybody knows who you are
Babe (babe)
Babe (babe)
Babe (babe)
You need love!
You own your own two-story house
And you got a heated swimming pool
When us poor people look over your fence
I bet you think you're cool
Babe (babe)
Babe (babe)
Babe (babe)
You need love!
I can't give you no diamond ring
Brand new car, lacy thing
There's one thing I got plenty of
One thing to you I'll share my love
I said yeah, yeah!
Aw, you lookin' good!
