Xtc The Loving

All around the world, every boy and every girl

Need the loving

The humble and the great, even those we think we hate

Need the loving

Soldiers of the queen, all the hard men that we've seen

Need the loving

Babies at the breast, those in power and those suppressed

Need the loving

Let's face it you just can't hide

Your first taste'll send you reeling

Like a firework to which we're tied

Be prepared to go through your ceiling now

The loving's coming

The loving's more than just an AD man's vision

The loving's strumming

On your heart strings, so loud that you can't help but listen

Sailors on the seas, or the clergy on their knees

Need the loving

All the rich and poor, even those we fight at war

Need the loving

That thing that we need most of

That stuff we should try before we've died

Everyone is begging to be loved

With a free gift, a working heart inside

The loving's coming

The loving's advertised in all the papers

The loving's humming

Your favorite song but for once it won't annoy the neighbors

The loving, the loving

All round the world, every boy and every girl

Need the loving

Cold-hearted or warm, every single person born

Needs the loving

Way out there in space, think we'll find that alien race

Needs the loving

And just to end the list, everything that could exist

Needs the loving

The loving's coming

The loving's coming

The loving's coming
