Give a little love
Diane Warren / Albert Hammond Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Make this world a little better
Living in this crazy world, soaked up in the confusion
Nothing is making sense for me and you
Maybe we can find a way, there's got to be solution
How to make a brighter day? What do we do?
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Let's do what we can do together
We can really make it better only if we try
Got the worries on our minds, got the troubles on our shoulders
Sometimes it seems so much what we go through
Maybe if we take the time, time to understand each other
We can learn to make it right. What do we do?
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
We can make it better only if we try
Only if we try
If everybody took somebody by the hand
Maybe everyone could learn to love and understand
We can really make it better only if we try
Singin', we can really make it better only if we try
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
We can really make it better only if we try
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this world a little better
Try a little more, harder than before
Let's do what we can do together
We can really make it better only if we try
We've got to give a little love, have a little hope
Make this a little better
We can do it together
Give a little love give a little love
Sing about the love sing about the love
The song Give a Little Love is a call to action to make the world a better place. This is achieved through the power of love and hope, which are presented as antidotes to the confusion and troubles of the world. The song acknowledges that things are difficult and that there are no easy answers, but encourages people to come together and work towards a solution. If everybody takes somebody by the hand, everyone could learn to love and understand each other, and this would make the world a brighter place. By giving a little love and hope, the world can be a better place, even if it is only a little bit at a time.
The song was written by Diane Warren and Albert Hammond who are both successful songwriters. Diane Warren has written many hit songs, including "I Don't Want to Miss a Thing" by Aerosmith and "Un-Break My Heart" by Toni Braxton, while Albert Hammond is known for his song "It Never Rains in Southern California". The song was originally released by The Judds in 1988, but has been covered by many artists since then, including Kylie Minogue and Westlife.
