The Festival
Verse 1
Driving through dusty gates
Escaping the horrors of the world
A darkness is lifted
Mind no longer a blur
Verse 2
Night before at Lions Den
Gave a glimpse of things to come
Best pizza in Australia
Washed down with beer and rum
Verse 3
We were festival virgins
All new and exciting to us
Gathering on the first night
The air was a buzz
Verse 4
Not a detail missed
Perfection in our surrounds
There was love in the air
Our smiles had no bounds
Verse 5
People paraded in drag
There was magic on the stage
Guitars, trombones rang out
We were spellbound and engaged
Verse 6
Sunday we were blessed
Dressed in our finest
Sweet sounds of gospel
The most unlikely choir
Verse 7
Festivals magic is not the music
Although it is first rate
Its the bringing together of people
In life we celebrate
Verse 8
Faith in people restored
We head through dusty gates
Leaving this oasis of love
That has no place for hate
