Someday

Someday, you'll accept me
Someday, you'll understand
Someday you will be happy for me
When you see me hold her hand

Someday you'll both realize
Just how happy I could be
If you would give me and her a chance
You can't know how much it would mean to me

You didn't ever have to go through this
Yet you think it's just a phase
But I'd bet you would both understand
If you know how it feels when she holds my gaze

Mother, I wish you'd accept me the way I am
So I could say how I feel for her aloud
Daddy, you look down on this now
But someday, you'll see why I'm proud

I wish that you knew how much courage it took
Just for me to come out to you
You want me to be a good, straight little girl
Well, this isn't about you

I don't need your approval to feel this way
You cannot control my world
I don't need your input, because I already know
...that I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS GIRL!

Mom and Dad, hear me out
I am your daughter, the lesbian
Although I can't say that I like girls
Because I only have eyes for one
