Lyrics:
Why\\nDo we always feel that we need to try\\nWhy do we believe that we need to be somebody else to feel alive\\nWhy do we make\\nWhy do we keep making the same mistakes\\nIn believing that it won't make a difference if we try to break away\\n\nI know\\nI know what you must be thinking\\nThat we are\\nPowerless to change things\\nBut don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\nI won't\\nThrow my hands up to surrender\\nCause love\\nIs stronger than fire\\nSo don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\n\nTime\\nDon't you think it's just a waste of time\\nWhen we're always fighting over material, trivial things in this life\\nI don't understand why we don't get it right\\nWhy do we keep going round and round\\nAt the end of the day\\nWe've only got ourselves to blame\\n\nI know\\nI know what you must be thinking\\nThat we are\\nPowerless to change things\\nBut don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\nI won't\\nThrow my hands up to surrender\\nCause love\\nIs stronger than fire\\nSo don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\n\n(We got love)\\n(We got love) We got love, we got love\\n(We got love) We got love\\n\nI know\\nI know what you must be thinking\\nThat we are\\nPowerless to change things\\nBut don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\nI won't\\nThrow my hands up to surrender\\nCause love\\nIs stronger than fire\\nSo don't, don't give up\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love\\nCause we got love
Australia participated in the Eurovision Song Contest 2018 with the song "We Got Love" written by "We Got Love" written by Anthony Egizii, David Musumeci and Jessica Mauboy. The song was performed by Jessica Mauboy, who was internally selected by the Australian broadcaster Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) to represent that nation at the 2018 contest in Lisbon, Portugal. Mauboy was announced as the Australian representative on 11 December 2017. The song Mauboy performed, "We Got Love", was presented to the public on 8 March 2018. Australia debuted in the Eurovision Song Contest in 2015 by invitation from the European Broadcasting Union (EBU) as a "one-off" special guest to celebrate the 60th anniversary of Eurovision. On 17 November 2015, the EBU announced that SBS had been invited to participate in the 2016 contest and that Australia would once again take part. In 2015, Australia was guaranteed a spot in the final of the contest and was allowed to vote during both semi-finals and the final; however, from the 2016 contest and onwards, Australia would have to qualify to the final from one of two semi-finals and could only vote in the semi-final in which the nation was allocated to compete. Australia was drawn to compete in the second semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest which took place on 10 May 2018. Performing during the show in position 9, "We Got Love" was announced among the top 10 entries of the second semi-final and therefore qualified to compete in the final on 12 May. It was later revealed that Australia placed fourth out of the 18 participating countries in the semi-final with 212 points. In the final, Australia performed in position 16 and placed twentieth out of the 26 participating countries, scoring 99 points.
Overall Final Postion: 20
