about

a song for marriage equality

lyrics

our day will come
flowers, rings, the whole damn thing
our day will come
cake and laughter, a vow to look after
two suits, two dresses, whatever

let’s illuminate some love
let’s liberate some love

our day will come
families’ proud, the whole rowdy crowd
our day will come
our bodies shaking for the love we’re making
two mses, two misters, whatever

let’s illuminate some love
let’s liberate some love

and the aunty who called me her little mate
who turned away with a look of distaste
and prayed to her god to save my hide
is now running to me with arms open wide

in back page news, a young girl floats in the sea
while fear stocks rise on the all-too-ordinaries
any heart can slip into hate
don’t we need more love to illuminate

let’s illuminate some love
let’s liberate some love
let’s radiate some love
let’s illuminate some love
