Love is love, no matter who you are No one should be persecuted for being a star Gays, lesbians, transvestites, transgenders We stand with you, our love never surrenders They say we're different, they say we're wrong But love is love, it's where we belong We're persecuted for being who we are But our love shines brighter than any star We're judged for our love, for our identity But we won't hide, we won't be empty We stand together, side by side Our love is strong, it cannot be denied We deserve to be loved, to be free To live our lives, to be who we want to be We won't be silenced, we won't be oppressed Our love is powerful, it won't be suppressed Love is love, no matter who you are No one should be persecuted for being a star Gays, lesbians, transvestites, transgenders We stand with you, our love never surrenders
