I used to walk a trodden way.
The one most follow everyday.
Fenced along by conservativeness.
Unable to go a variant way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
The one foreseen by those who pray.
And though I prayed and try today,
I longed still for a novel way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
Accepted by kin everyday.
Until one day I found myself.
Twas then I followed a less walked way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
A woman's love the only way.
This new road that I now walk,
The one walked by those called "gay."
The one most follow everyday.
Fenced along by conservativeness.
Unable to go a variant way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
The one foreseen by those who pray.
And though I prayed and try today,
I longed still for a novel way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
Accepted by kin everyday.
Until one day I found myself.
Twas then I followed a less walked way.
I used to walk a trodden way.
A woman's love the only way.
This new road that I now walk,
The one walked by those called "gay."
