Liner Notes

#valentine #lovesong #girlwithukulele

My wife and I decided this week that we are indeed likely moving forward on our plans to flee #queer persecution. It's been a rough few days, but when I allow myself to #hope, I do see a bright future. I wish I didn't have to leave my country to find it.

Lyrics

We’ll Go Together
Jemma Kline

When I met you, I saw my world falling down.
When I saw you, my heart was turned around.
There’s so many things we’ve made it through to get us here today,
So you know you can believe me when I say,

We’ll go together.
I know we’ll make it through.
We’ll go together.
Hold my hand; I’ll be with you.

Days are cold now, but the spring is drawing near.
Days are dark now, but there’s nothing we should fear.
There’s a thousand things that we have learned to make it through these times,
So you know that you should look into my eyes.

We’ll go together.
I know we’ll make it through.
We’ll go together.
Hold my hand; I’ll be with you.

Let’s find a way, let’s find a town,
Let’s find a house, let’s go.
We’ll sweep the floors, we’ll make the bed,
We’ll make a home, you know.

We’ll go together.
I know we’ll make it through.
We’ll go together.
Hold my hand; I’ll be with you.
I’ll be with you.

I am so sorry you have to make such plans. Judging by this song, you and your wife will make it, by supporting each other, wherever you go.

I love the last verse, picturing the days ahead in a concrete way. I've found it easier to get through big changes when I know what I can look forward to.

Best wishes to the both of you. I'm glad you have each other and a plan.

The song sounds wonderful. It's good to hear about determination to survive, even if the need for the effort is horrifying.

I'm sorry to read about the situation in the country being so sad and desperate. Your lyrics bring hope for a better future. You have a clear vision, and a clear plan. And these positive chords are a good choice

The love and sincerity shine through in your performance, making this genuinely touching. The simple homey images say so much--the "Let's find a way" stanza, with its simple wish for something that should be so normal, so available to everyone, is extremely effective. I applaud your courage in uprooting your life for a better one, if that is what you choose to do. Even just this tender song is an important act of resistance and declaration of purpose, that love is so much more important and meaningful than hate.
