Though I gain the whole world
All the riches it contains
And though I feed the poor
Do good deeds in your name
Even if I gave my body to the flames
Without love, it just wouldn't be the same
Cause without love, (do-wap) it's not enough
No, without love, no, no, no
Without love it's not enough to carry my words along
It's in one ear and out the next it's gone
Cause without love, I'm a clanging gong
What hidden motives do I hold here in my hand
To receive recognition from my fellow man
If selfish ambition drives me at all costs
You might as well just write me off
Cause I'm already lost
Cause without love, (do-wap) it's not enough
No without love, it's not enough
No without love, can't buy me no l-o-v-e selfless givin' love
Cause without love it's not enough
It don't mean a thing if you ain't lovin'
Shoo-wap a-dap...
When Jesus Christ, well he became a man
He showed us all his father's great command
Acted out for all to see
When he hung upon that tree
Where he bled, he died, and he rose for you and me
Now that's love, that kind of love
That's what we need, that kind of love
Can't buy me no l-o-v-e selfless givin' love
That's what we need more of, that kind of love
No it don't mean a thing or two, not three not four
Better walk out the door, if you ain't got no love no more
Cause you ain't got nothin' at all
Without love
