Romanovsky & Phillips - Be On The Safe Side lyrics

(A note of thanks to Tom Wilson Weinberg for his lyric "Not Gonna

Stop Loving Men" which planted the seed for this song.)

We don't have to stop loving each other

We don't have to stop loving ourselves

There's talk of a quarantine, talk of a plan

To stop the love from flowing, woman to woman, man to man

But that is not the answer to this crisis that we're in

We need to pull together for a healing to begin

And we don't have to stop loving each other

We don't have to stop loving ourselves

We don't have to sacrifice our passion and our pride

We've just got to be on the safe side

Now where there's a will there is always a way

And where there are people, ten percent will be gay

We've always been known for having such creative minds

And if we put them all to use I know that we will find

That we don't have to stop loving each other

We don't have to stop loving ourselves

We don't have to sacrifice our passion and our pride

We've just got to be on the safe side

There are those who want to blame us

Point a finger, try and shame us

And tell us that the love we feel is wrong

But we'll soon enough forget them

If we refuse to let them

When they try to take away the very thing that makes us strong

And we're not gonna stop loving each other

Were not gonna stop loving ourselves

Were not gonna sacrifice our passion and our pride

We're just gonna be on the safe side
