I don't want to know about evil,
I only want to know about love;
I don't want to know the first thing about evil,
I only want to know about love.

I'm waiting for the planes to tumble,
Waiting for the sky itself to fall.
I'm waiting for the cities one by one to crumble,
Waiting till the sea would fall.

I don't want to know about evil,
I only want to know about love;
I don't want to know about evil,
I only want to know about love.

Don't tell me; don't tell me;
Don't tell me about that evil stuff
Don't tell me; don't tell me;
Don't tell me, 'cause I've seen enough

I don't want to know about evil.

Cry til you cry no more,
You can try til you try no more.
You might love til you love no more.
That is what my creator told me today;
That is what my sweet Lord told me today.

She says you could think til you think no more;
You can love til you love no more.
Be a bird, like a dove, til you are no more,
You can't fly, ah don't cry.

That's what my creator told me today;
That is what my sweet Lord taught me today.

And I don't want to know about evil,
I only want to know about love;
I don't want to know first thing about evil,
I only want to know about love.

Don't tell me; don't tell me;
I know enough about that stuff
Don't tell me; please don't tell me;
Don't tell me, 'cause I've seen enough

I don't want to know about evil,
I only want to know about love;
I don't want to know the first thing about evil,
I only want to know about love.
Sweet, sweet love...

You can try and try no more;
You can cry and cry no more.
You can love til you love no more;
Be a wild flying dove no more.

That is what love is, told me today;
That is what love is, told me today.
That is what love is, that is what love is,
Told me today.

The indented parts are referred to as 'My Creator.' It is an early version of the track that eventually popped up on On The Cobbles
