Together

Tell me what fears are holding you back,

Are you afraid of this cowardly world?

Do warning men terrify you?

Are you afraid of stones being hurled?

With us together, do we need else more?

I’ll be your world, you be mine,

Hand in hand we shall bear what they bring,

The day they are tired, all will be fine,

They may banish us, may torture and hurt,

Remorse, taunts, curses and all,

I know it’s not easy for any of us,

But when in an embrace, we never can fall,

We shall overcome what comes over us,

Believe me, beloved, together we shall.
