One
Common Heartbeat
A Leather Anthem for the Twentieth
Anniversary of IML
Lyrics by Gary Aldrich and Kevin Tyrrell
6 February 1998
copyright Aldrich Tyrrell 1998
Any unauthorized duplication strictly forbidden by law.
One common heartbeat.
One leather nation.
We're growing stronger day by day.
Brothers and sisters,
Our destination
Is just a heartbeat away.
Join in our journey:
Heart, mind and spirit.
Respect ourselves for who we are.
Trusting, safe, sane, consenting,
We can love without fear, it
Is time to stand and reach for the stars!
One common heartbeat.
One dedication.
One tribe, one clan, we have a say!
Masters and servants,
This declaration
Is just a heartbeat away.
Old Guard, you teach us,
New Guard, you reach us.
Our common unity is clear.
Loving as we have chosen,
Let us live without fear!
Our community is singing, you can hear...
One common heartbeat.
One leather nation.
We're growing stronger day by day.
Brothers and sisters,
Our destination
Is just a heartbeat away.
One common passion
Fills our desire
To be ourselves, to have the right
To self-expression,
And to inspire
The road from darkness to light!
Care for your brother
Now, while he's living;
These bonds were formed when time began.
Pass the torch, light the future,
Give him all you can give.
We're his family, alone he's just one man.
One common passion,
One Ring of Fire,
One conflagration we ignite.
We have the power.
Now we aspire
In leather pride to unite.
Honor and leather
Bind us together.
In uniform our wings take flight.
Brothers, sisters, and lovers,
Let us banish the night,
Knowing we must keep this vision in our sight:
One common heartbeat.
One leather nation.
We're growing stronger day by day.
Brothers and sisters,
Our destination
Is just a heartbeat away.
