June

It's finally happening to me

The thing I just had to believe

It will be seven years in June

I know my time is coming soon

I told her everything I know

I told her daddy where to go

I let her drink my mama's wine

I never was allowed to shine

But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on

She took me to her parents'

I stared their dog right in the face

He asked me if I knew his name

"Mother," I said without a shame

There's something you should know right here

Might not be gay but sure am queer

We would be married in six weeks

I'm not afraid to say "defeat"

But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on

(Hold on, just hold on)

Freedom is just another word

But words are for more than being heard

Wishing you did like (femme?)

I've got to go and be myself

It's finally happening to me

The thing I was afraid to believe

It took me seven years to bloom

I knew my time was coming soon

But hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on

(Hold on, just hold on)

Hold on, just hold on, hold on, just hold on

(Hold on, just hold on)

Hold on
