Luther Vandross
Send the Message of Love
[Chorus]
Send the message of love
Let the world know it's time to make a change
Send it right from your heart
It's the right place to start to make a change

[Verse 1]
The world's supposed to be a loving place
But sometimes I look around and I don't see a friendly face
We can change things if we try
We can keep good love alive
You see, people walk about 'cause they have no home
Feeling hopelessly, rejected and so alone
Wе can change that if we try
We can keep goodnеss alive

[Pre-Chorus]
Your love is what you give to me
I'll give love in return
I'm thankful but there's still a lot to learn
So I pray for the ones who have no love (They need love, too)
So this is what I think we've got to do

[Chorus]
Send the message of love, ooh
Let the world know it's time to make a change
Send it right from your heart
It's the right place to start to make a change
[Verse 2]
(Don't give up)
Don't give in, it's not too late
But don't wait and waste the time
It's best not to hesitate
All that love should fill the hope
And without love you can't even start

[Pre-Chorus]
You see, more love is what we really need
The world's falling apart
Sometimes I feel this aching in my heart
So I pray for the ones who have no love (They need love, too)
So this is what I think we ought to do

[Chorus]
Send the message of love (Come on)
Let the world know it's time to make a change (Make a change)
Send it right from your heart (From your heart)
It's the right place to start to make a change
Send the message of love (You've got to send it)
Let the world know it's time to make a change
Send it right from your heart
It's the right place to start to make a change

[Bridge]
We all gotta do it
(Start to make a change)
Yeah, we all gotta do it
You, stay with me
(Start to make a change)
Huh
[Instrumental Break]

[Pre-Chorus]
More love is what we really need
The world's falling apart
Sometimes I feel this aching in my heart
So I pray for the ones who have no one (They need love, too)
So this is what I think we ought to do

[Chorus]
Send the message of love, ooh
Let the world know it's time to make a change (Make a change)
Send it right from your heart
It's the right place to start to make a change (Send it)
Send the message of love (Gotta let the world know)
Let the world know it's time to make a change (Ooh, send it)
Send it right from your heart (From your heart)
It's the right place to start to make a change

[Outro]
Come on, ooh, come on, ooh-ooh, come on, ooh
(Start to make a change)
Ooh, come on, mmm, come on, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, come on
(Start to make a change)
Send it, gotta let the world know
Let the world know it's time to make a change
Send it, gotta let the world know
Let the world know it's time to make a change
Send the message of love, ooh
Let the world know it's time to make a change
(Make a change, ooh)
Send it right from your heart (From your heart)
It's the right place to start to make a change
