Let's Get Together
H. P. Lovecraft Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love is but the song we sing

It is the way we die

You can make the mountains ring

Make the angels cry
Now the dove is on the wing

You need not know why



Come on people, now

Let's get together

Smile on your brother

Try and love one another right now, yeah



Some may come and some may go now

We will surely pass

When the one that left us here, yeah

Returns for us at last

We are but a moment's sunlight

Fading on the grass



Come on people, now

Let's get together

Smile on your brother

Try and love one another right now, yeah



Love is but the song we sing

It is the way we die

You can make the mountains ring

Make the angels cry

Now the dove is on the wing

You need not know why



Come on people, now

Let's get together

Smile on your brother

Try and love one another right now, yeah



Come on people, now

Let's get together

Smile on your brother

Try and love one another right now, yeah



Come on people, now

Let's get together

Smile on your brother





Try and love one another right now, yeah
