Gay Spirit

Lyrics

[Verse 1] When we were born, they tried to cover our eyes Then they tried to tell us all what to see We are discoverin' that did not work For we were born to be free [Chorus] It's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times It's a gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love [Verse 2] When we were born, they tried to put us all in a cage Then tell our bodies what to feel We had chosen to feel all the truth That our bodiеs do reveal [Chorus] It's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Lеading us through these troubled times It's a gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love [Verse 3] We are no strangers to all the pain That comes with fighting for our love We are the outlaws in a lovesick land Whose crime has only been to care [Chorus] There's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times It's a gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love [Verse 4] You run and tell that old patriarch We're no longer blind to his ways You run and tell him that we've stolen all the keys To the prison that he has made [Chorus] Tell him there's a gay spirit moving 'round this land Leading us through these troubled times A gay spirit singing in our hearts Calling us to a time of open love [Verse 5] Sometimes it gets too hard to feel all the joy In the face of all pain we see But there's a healing place within our hearts It's comin' alive in you and me [Chorus] There's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times It's a gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love [Instrumental Break] [Chorus] There's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times It's a gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love It's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times A gay spirit movin' 'round this land Calling us to a time of open love
