SONG LYRICS: “Don’t Tell Me Who To Love”
VERSE ONE
The year was 1966 and they were wearing their wedding bands
She was black and he was white and some people didn’t understand
The judge said that’s not legal, the preacher called it a sin
But they couldn’t stop them cause he loved her and she loved him
CHORUS
Don’t tell me who to love, don’t tell me who to kiss
Don’t tell me that there’s something wrong because I feel like this
I know what’s in my heart, that should be enough
Don’t tell me, don’t tell me no, don’t tell me who to love
VERSE TWO
Maybe you’re in love today and you’ve been making wedding plans
But there is someone in your way shouting things cause they don’t understand
The judge says that’s not legal, the preacher calls it a sin
Oh you just remember they were wrong before and they’re wrong again
REPEAT CHORUS
BRIDGE
Now there always will be hatred and voices that condemn
Oh but I believe that true love is gonna make it in the end
REPEAT CHORUS (fade)
