about
Her Song is ..
A celebration, a bop, a monument, Dublin in the sun,
It’s joyful, loud, hopeful & proud. Queer as you like.
A big, gay love song.
lyrics
Sweetheart how can it be?
We tiptoed in the shallows
Now we’re oceans deep
What a time it’s been of unravelling
A steady tide of revelations dazzling
Diminutive one
As sweet upon the lips as she is acid-tongued
Trickster, feeder, she’ll embrace you
Then cut you from your high horse
Sharp as a razor
She’ll grind your gears and start your ignition
She’ll smite you with a look from the lotus position
Come on baby smite me
You stuck around, stuck around
While I stumbled blindly through
Now like a hungry hound, hungry hound
I want all of you
Steadfast and true
You knew more than I knew
You knew more than I knew
Awaking with you
Disposition sunny honey
Breakfast is fruit
So what’ll it be babe
A coffee and a stroll around the liberties
And later we’ll dance
And I will delight in checking you out in your yoga pants
Drinks at seven, noodles at eight
I’ll bring my bike and swing ‘round your place
You’ll have to walk down all of those floors
To buzz me in that confounded front door
There you are
Man I’m buzzed to see ya
Stuck around stuck around…
You’ve opened my heart up
There’s hope at the start
Maybe this time around
We may not run aground
Or baby if we do
Equipped with resolve
And the tools to cut loose we may
Cast out from the shoreline
Leave doubt behind us and
Sail into the blue
I care for you
It’s crazy to me baby but I truly do
All at once
To cherish and to grow with you is all I want
You move me
In all your stoicism and fragility
Quiet creative, secretive bard
She’ll write you sweet words in a birthday card
Tentative sweetheart, lover of love
Who’d do for me anything if push came to shove
And baby I for you
You stuck around…
Oh the magnitude of feeling for you
Is so astoundingly, pulse-poundiogly sweet
So sweet
Compounded by the certainty it ain’t a one-way street
Where we meet
It’s a noodle bar on Capel street and you’re with me
Happy
Can you believe we’re happy?
