[Verse 1]Firstly, a disclaimerTo be clearIn the real world you will not hearWhat we are going to sayBut in musical theatreThat’s a different storyIt’s a moment to escapeThe confines of today[Verse 2]We recogniseThe impact of our wordsThe impact of our valuesAnd the impact on your livesSo, we offer our apologyTo you, and you, and youIt’s a message of regretFor what we did and didn’t do[Verse 3]To our queer sons and daughtersTo our queer nieces and nephewsTo all those lives we damagedThe shame is oursAnd to those who took their own livesWho couldn’t live with our hatredAnd to those who remain The shame is ours[Bridge]All because we couldn’t imagineA world wider than our ownWhere we simply celebrateGood character and deed[Verse 4]We couldn’t imagine a worldWhere love is simply loveBut you taught usIt’s really that simpleAnd so our promise to you allForever moreIs to sing out proudThat love is love[Outro]Love is loveLove is loveLove is loveIt’s that simpleLove is loveLove is loveLove is loveIt’s that simpleLove is loveLove is loveLove is loveIt’s that simple. |
