Re-United States of Love

It’s so good to see you
We know it’s been too long
Redraw the map, push the frontier back
Sing a reunion song
Can we forge a new world
Out of this one somehow?
The new deal could be sealed
Its in our reach right now
Reunited, reunited states of love
There’s much to be forgiven
A lot that’s best forgot
Don’t waste this chance we’re given
To make up for time we’ve lost
Take me straight to the heartland
I know it’s deep within
We’ll wake up in the morning light
And reassess the mess we’re in
Reunited, reunited states of love
In my imagination I can be myself
Accept the contradiction
Of needing someone else
So here’s my declaration
Stars on my flag
Wrap yourself in real hope
It’s all we really lacked
Reunited, reunited states of love
