[Intro]
(Reggae guitar skank and bass line)
[Verse 1]
In this world of division and strife
We're searching for a better life
But the answer's been here all along
One love to make us strong
[Chorus]
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Let's get together and feel alright
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Most High
We're all children of the earth
One love gives new birth
(aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh)
[instrumental hook]
[Verse 2]
Color of skin don't mean a thing
When we let one love ring
Break down the walls, bridge the divide
With one love on our side
[Chorus][Choir][Male][Female][Happy]
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Let's get together and feel alright
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Most High
We're all children of the earth
One love gives new birth
(aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh)
[Bridge]
(Spoken word style)
Whether you're from the east or west
North or south, we're all blessed
Rich or poor, young or old
One love's the story untold
[Chorus][Choir][Male][Female][Happy]
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Let's get together and feel alright
One love, one heart
(one love, one heart)
Give thanks and praise to the Most High
We're all children of the earth
One love gives new birth
(aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh)

One love, one heart (repeat and fade)
One love, one heart (repeat and fade)
One love, one heart (repeat and fade)
One love, one heart (repeat and fade)
