Subject: Lyr Add: LIGHT IS RETURNING (Charlie Murphy) Here's another one. Carol Holdstock sang it at our session last week. It's a good song, even for us non-pagans. |
Subject: ADD: Gay Spirit (Charlie Murphy) From: Joe Offer Date: 01 Jun 17 - 06:37 PM GAY SPIRIT (Charlie Murphy) When we were born they tried to cover our eyes Then they tried to tell us what to see We are discovering that did not work For we were born to be free CHORUS There's a gay spirit singing in our hearts Leading us through these troubled times There's a gay spirit moving round this land Calling us to a time of open love When we were born they tried to put us in a cage And tell our bodies what to feel We have chosen to feel all the truth That our bodies do reveal We are no strangers to all the pain That comes with fighting for our love We are the outlaws in this lovesick land Whose crime has only been to care. You run and tell that ol' patriarch We're no longer blind to his ways You run and tell him we've stolen all the keys To the prison he has made Sometimes it gets too hard to feel all the joy In the face of all the pain we see But there's a healing place within our hearts It's coming alive in you and me Notes: Narrow definitions of "gayness" block awareness in gay people of the deeper, more all-pervasive spiritual source that is at the essence of gayness. This, of course, serves the interests of the patriarchal system. The gay spirit springs from a place of balance and a passion for equality like the world has never known yet! From the liner notes for Walls to Roses: Songs of Changing Men Folkways records FTS 37587 Charlie Murphy Recording: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4vmHQdy2I8 |
