Go Our Own Way

Go Our Own Way

A Poem by John Alexander McFadyen
"

With sincere apologies to Fleetwood Mac!

"

Staying in
Isn't the right thing to do
How can it ever change things
That we feel

 

If I could
Maybe I'd trade with the world
How can I
When you just won't take us out.

 

We can go our own way,

go our own way,

we can do it

despite Theresa May

go our own way.

 

 

Tell me why
Everything turned around
Packing up
Shacking up with Europe is no good

If I could
Lady, I'd trade with the world
Open up
Everything's waiting for us

 

We can go our own way,

go our own way,

we can do it

despite Theresa May

go our own way.

(Repeat)

I'm not sure if this is about love or something political like Brexit. Works either way. Good one.

I thought it might be Brexit. :)
And I should have clued in at Theresa May.
Sometimes it’s the only way with our own truths - that’s what people are afraid of - going with crowd won’t get us nowhere- well said 🌹

Aye but often we have to move the mountains ourselves.

Agreed dear poetess, agreed.
Love Fleetwood Mac and this is a clever and lyrical write. It is so topical at the moment. I am all for going our own way and hope that eventually we will. I have every confidence in our ability not like the naysayers and doom mongers. Nice and positive John. Right up my street.
