Story Behind The Song

I was just thinking about how hard it can be to keep so many things going financially, and what effect it has on our love for each other.

Song Description

It's about getting rid of the stuff that doesn't matter in your life, or the things that weigh down a relationship. Getting back to the basics of love.

Lyrics

All We Really Need Is Love
Copyright Sonny B. Bell (ASCAP)

We got a Lincoln Navigator that sits in the driveway
And a Mercedes Benz for when we hit the highway
Five bed-rooms and a king-size pool
Extravagant clothes and expensive jewels

But I?m bored to death with keepin? up with the Jones?
(And) I?m tired of livin? on these tiny cell-phones

Chorus:
(Let?s get/Gettin?) back to the fundamentals
(Strip it all/Strippin?) down to the bare essentials
All we really need is lo-o-ove
Let?s let go of the superficial
Cut back and reach our full potential
All we really need is love
Yeah (,yeah, yeah), all we really need is love

We?ve been working so hard that we?ve forgotten each other
As soon as one day ends then along comes another
We?ve got all this material stuff
Ain?t it funny that it?s never enough

We keep on adding to our bottom line
When we oughta be spendin? more time

(repeat chorus)

bridge:
It can?t be all that complicated
It sure came easy when we dated

(repeat chorus)

That?s all? That?s all we need
That?s all? That?s all we need? fade
