First solo single recorded at Hightown Studios in Thornhill, Southampton

lyrics

[Verse 1]
All of your faith
Encumbered in strength
Building your walls
Watching them fall

What does it mean?
Mean to be free?
To open myself?
Why'd you choose me?

[Chorus]
Love is not a privilege a Judge can refuse
Love is not material made only for a few
Love is for the Ace, the Straights
'Cause love it can not choose
and if you understand this
then love was was meant for you

[Verse 2]
You go to your room and close the door
As soon as you know it you're on the floor
'Cause you don't want to be here anymore
and living day to day seems like a chore

'Cause the kids at school, they don't understand
Why Sally and Johnny don't want to hold hands
and you start to pray to a God above
To make you feel like them, like them for once.

[Chorus]
Love is not a privilege a Judge can refuse
Love is not material made only for a few
Love is for the Ace, the Straights
'Cause love it can not choose
and if you understand this
then love was was meant for you

[Bridge]
and I know, I know I feel it in my bones
I could have been a better friend
but I know, I know I will
I'll get there in the end

You deserve a life of joy
Without the worry of people judging you
You just keep singing your song
and soon they'll sing it too

[Chorus]
Love is not a privilege a Judge can refuse
Love is not material made only for a few
Love is for the Ace, the Straights
'Cause love it can not choose
and if you understand this
then love was was meant for you

[Chorus Revamp]
So this is for the people who can't say who they are
For fear of being judged by Civilians up in arms
Love it knows not limits and love it knows not bounds

and if you understand this
Then it's love that you've found
and if you understand this
Then they will come around
