You grew up thinking you knew her

Nothing could keep you apart

You remember nothing peculiar

She always spoke from the heart



You took your parents' religion

And you drank it down like a coke

It helped to quench your confusion

Now look who's heart that it broke



(chorus)

She loves a girl

She loves a girl

She loves a girl

What are you gonna do --

If you love her too? 



A gold and white invitation

Your parents will not attend

They put a knife to the blood line

When the couple became more than friends



The preacher sang "hallelujah"

But it rang more like a curse

One love at the cost of another

Manthat's when love really hurts



(chorus)



So take a seat

In the world of the open minded

And when you speaktell them

Even love can be blinded



You think more of the future

When change brings your past to an end

Use your love like a suture

That's a good place to begin



(chorus)
