When I was 19 I broke up with my first girlfriend Because of a guy down the hall Who was a Christian He said, "I look at you I can see you don't wanna lie And if you stay with her Your whole life you're gonna have to hide" And I believed him So I let her go And I cried my eyes out In my room alone And he would come by with the Bible Until I shut the door And decided I wasn't going to lie to myself any more Some day We'll all be free I can feel it It's our destiny Some day I believe Love will make An honest world for me It took a long time To find you I knew right away I was gonna want to spend my life with you We took our wedding vows We had our wedding night We had everything Except the legal right And so we jumped the broom Like plantation slaves would do Cause they couldn't marry Under the master's rules Some day We'll all be free I can feel it It's our destiny Some day They'll see the truth And I will make An honest woman of you Hey... There's a baby being born Somewhere in the world Who's gonna need us As much as we're gonna need her And we will board the plane And we're gonna bring her home And that's how we'll make A little family of our own But the documents Will leave off one of our names Like one of us cut Right from the picture frame Some day We'll all be free I can feel it It's our destiny Some day I trust Love will make An honest world for us And today I believe Love has made An honest woman of me
