Part 2 - When Love had no Road - Lyrics by Clare Shaw & Melody by Alison Burns

WHEN LOVE HAD NO ROAD resonates with the HMD testimonies of those who have survived genocides and are dislocated by war, where the journey along the road as a migrant or refugee is so powerful as an experience in their travels and as a metaphor for their survival, and this lyric the road is about love, because it is love that can restore and build a road, it is love that can build a structure to restore humanity!

Lyrics adapted from a poem called 'Vow' composed by Clare Shaw

Yes, say yes, say yes, say yes!

Put the word of your hand in mine and say yes

When love had no road we built it

We shouldered its stones and its dirt and built it

We laid aside our hurt and built it

When love had no road
