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 Man, that's when love really hurts (Chorus) So take a seat In the world of the open minded And when you speak, tell 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)
