COMPOSER NOTES
We hear this phrase a lot. Love wins. It feels cloying or mawkish and therefore meaningless. So I wanted to do something with it and give it meaning. "Love wins" should be a simple idea that makes you want to sing. So I added some foot-stomping rhythm and acoustic guitar and created an anthem that will have your heart racing and your audiences feeling the love.
It's a fast-paced, easy-to-learn, uplifting number to add to your concert repertoire, with Scissor Sisters and Avici influences, guaranteed to get your audience stomping and clapping along.
THE TEXT
Of the many things I’ve learned
along this road and in this life,
There is one thing that remains forever true.
It’s a simple, solid thing
and it makes me wanna sing.
Sing for us and sing for them and sing for you.
And before the sun sets
These strangers will be friends
Love is love and love will never end
Before the sun sets
Love will let you in
And this is where our story will begin
Cos love is love and love will always win.
Make your mark upon this earth
Know your truth and know your worth
Find your rhythm in the beating of the drum.
Love is endless love is blind
Love will never change its mind
it’s the only thing that’s left when we are gone
Can you hear the elders call now?
Can you see what they did for y'all now?
Can you feel ground beneath you shake?
Colours fill the clear blue skies,
Every stripe of our fierce pioneers.
They were here. They stood here.
Living proof that it’s up to us now
