Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love, love, love
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

Line by Line Meaning

Love, love, love
Love is what this song is about, and it's highlighted in the repetition of this phrase.


There's nothing you can do that can't be done
Anything you can do, somebody else can do it too. Hence, strive for love; it has no competition.


Nothing you can sing that can't be sung
Singing is a form of creative expression, and anyone can sing if they set their mind to it. Therefore, it's easily achievable just like love.


Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
Even though people might not listen to what you say, but that doesn't mean you can't review and learn from feedback. You can still seek to understand the rules of the 'game' for better communication.


It's easy
The point is that love is easily accessible to everyone; all you need to do is be open-minded.


Nothing you can make that can't be made
Anything you can create, someone else can create it too. So what really counts is the love and value put into the creation.


No one you can save that can't be saved
One person's effort may not change the entire world, but it can impact someone or something in a positive way.


Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be you in time
There is only one you, but with age comes finding and refining who you are, and it's a beautiful and necessary process that can be achieved with time and care.


All you need is love
This is the crux of the song's message; in life, everything will fall into place if we approach it with love.


Nothing you can know that isn't known
There's no secret to love since everybody knows what it is. It's not rocket science but something simple.


Nothing you can see that isn't shown
There is no hidden agenda when speaking of love; it is tangible and visible when you receive or give it.


Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be
The song explains that you're always where you're supposed to be. Therefore, you can make the most of every situation, positive or negative, by doing everything with genuine love.


All you need is love (All together, now!)
This repeated line, especially with the 'All together, now!' phrase, underscores the importance of a unified effort, in love, to make the world a better place.


She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah
