10:03 on a Tuesday morning In the fall of an American dream Man is doing what he knows is right
Loved his mom and he loved his dad Loved his home and he loved his man But on that bloody Tuesday morning
Now you cannot change this You can't pretend this is not the truth
Even though he could not marry Or teach our children in your schools Because who he wants to love Is breaking your God's rules
He stood up on a Tuesday morning In the terror he was brave And he made his choice, and without a doubt A hundred lives he must have saved
Now you cannot change this You can't pretend this is not the truth
And the things you might take for granted Some might choose to deny him Even though he gave his life
Can you live with yourself in the land of the free If they make him less of a hero than the other three Well it might begin to change here In a field in Pennsylvania
Now you cannot change this You can't pretend this is not the truth
Hear the bell now as it tolls
Now you cannot change this You can't pretend this is not the truth More from Melissa Etheridge
