Story Behind The Song
I originally wrote this song in the late 1960's in response to the Vietnam War and racial tensions of that era. Recently, I got the song out again and rewrote it, giving it a modern sound. Unfortunately, the lyrics are still very relevant today.

Lyrics
WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE LOVE?
Words & Music by Donna Dutchess
What's wrong with our love today, where has it gone?
The world has filled up in hate. Look around all you people
At the hearts aching with despair
Fill them with the joy of love that will always be there.
A love that will always be there to wait for someone to come and claim it
And show a warm heart and smiling lips to all our neighbors
And peace, and peace
Oh god, what's happened to all the love?
BRIDGE
Where is the love? Where is the Love? Where is the Love? Where is the Love?
Where is the love? Where is the Love? Where is the Love? Where is the Love?
Oh God what happened to all the love?
A love that will always be there to wait for someone to come and claim it
And show a warm heart and smiling lips to all our neighbors
And peace, and peace
Oh god, what's happened to all the love? { REPEAT BRIDGE}
