Wondering what we would do
If we could all get together
From Two
To become One
As Children of the same Sun
Life and love is what we
would have in common
Never letting our love die
We come together
Underneath One sky
Surrounded by the One ocean
Of Space
This battle we fight is revolution
Of Human Grace
Never Sever our Tie
Together we achieve victory
With our whole lives
Just like yours
We want ours
We do not take it from you
There is room for all to do
What the god of our Universe
Intended
Making sure that Right
Is to everyone extended
We pursue happiness
Not devastation
Fusion not Fission
Our Mission
In this life to see all peoples
Free merely to be
To exist as you already do
Beside me
How can I refuse someone
That courtesy
Blessed we be to know
That nature made you the same as me
As you climb up
There ain’t no reason
To tear others down
I was born here
Flying the flag of freedom
For my first sound
The most wonderful voices
In this country’s history
Never dismissed me
They told me
I should respect all colors and creeds
The seeds we sow of love
Are the mighty oaks we need
To stand firm and resolved
To be together
No matter what they say
Be with us
Unify don’t deny
No matter whether laws stand
Or fall
“Together” must be the joy of All
We’re not asking
To have the ability to hurt you
We’re not pushing
To tear you apart
We’re not saying
You have to lose what you have
We’re asking you to add
Not subtract
To master a math of Love
-Which I Know for a fact
is the One Law given to you
from up above
I have to ask those oppose unity:
What are you afraid of?
The house you live in will still stand
The music you listen to will still be available on the FM band
Your coffee will still rest firmly in your hand
Starbucks will still charge you the same
If Patrick and Tom have a piece of paper
Entitling them to share a name
The President for you
Will still be the President for us
I know you understand
The world will still have war
Unfortunately
We’ll all still have taxes to pay
And still be worried about social security
Gasoline won’t be affected
If the same sex get connected
And if their wish is to kiss
Don’t worry
With their Cooties you won’t be
Infected
The television will still have Idol on
But Clay won’t have to say he’s not gay
Just to sing a song
If you think civilization will crumble
Because Dahlia loves Antoinette
Then you may not get what Love means yet
You can still expect the Sun to come up
And Good Morning America to be on
While you fill your cup
You favorite sports they will still play
And you still won’t know who’s on steroids
Or who’s gay
You can still walk the street to your beat
Still eat your favorite meal in your favorite seat
Ain’t much about your life is gonna change
If He and He and She and She
Decide a marriage to arrange
I guess Vegas may boom if we make room
For two more on the aisle
-Maybe some of that money will come
to Californ-I-A and then you can delay
the budget crisis that will still be here
for awhile
This is
If you can just step back
So you can see the light of
Two Humans with a smile
I have an unbeatable argument for those who don’t agree:
I will tell them
Buddha said “Love”
I will tell them
Jesus said “Love”
I will tell them
Mohammed said “Love”
I will tell them
God said “Love”
I will tell them
The Constitution says “Equal”
You can’t tell me that you can see
Two people on the street
And know what makes their hearts and minds complete
You can’t tell me their union will touch you in the least
That somehow your life will go down in defeat if they meet
We’re not going to hurt you
If we walk a few feet down a path
Don’t be afraid, don’t let fear drive you
Away from your Sons and Daughters
Your Sisters and Brothers
We know all of you went through Hell and high water
To see slaves free
To bring the vote to Her and me
Give us a chance to go further down that path
How can you justify refusing
Karen and Kerry their own love note?
We must remember that we gather here
Today to be Together
And together we should go in Peace
The best fight we can make against those who seek to separate in this State
Is to continue to get together
To continue to love one another
To unify and connect on our own
To find a name for our cause
So as not to disturb their precious zone
We don’t need a gavel and a robe
To tell us how to love
You just keep reaching for the hand of another
You show them what it means to be a lover
You raise your children to be tolerant and understanding
And one day they will
Be demanding
Recognition of the love of two people
For each other
Two people equal to all others
‘cause we ain’t done here
We will erase all fear
We will bring all people near
We will celebrate this obstacle for what it is
An opportunity to create everlasting love
For all those we hold dear.
