How I So Wanted To Believe They Were Gay
How I so wanted to believe they were gay.
(for Dr Liam Fox MP and Adam Werritty xx).
If only those meetings, evenings and trips away had been for love
So that they could share a few stolen moments away from those who would not approve
If only those business cards had been passed between the two of them and to no one else
An opportunity to beat the system and to let love commence
How I would have shouted up for the cause that is love
How I would have defended them from those who would surely not approve
But the reality was too bleak to comprehend
Something which I could not defend
Because despite all their scheming and secrets
Which I would have forgiven if love was their only weakness
I would have defended their right to a lovers weekend away
Oh how I so wanted to believe that they were gay
