Unauthorized use is prohibited. Be My David Track #9 from the album: The Leatherbound Journal of a Gay Country Boy by Nepenthe Poesia David in the Bible said that Jonathan's love for him had surpassed any love from women. My name is also Jonathan, and I draw on the story of David and Jonathan to tell this heartfelt story between a gay man and the straight men that he loved before. (Although I do ship David and Jonathan as a couple...) And I chose a bathhouse for the scene of the video since David watched Bathsheba bathing. It was always so painful for me when my straight roommates would, inexorably, move on with their lives to their women and jobs -- leaving me behind. I could love them better, just as Jonathan loved David in the Bible. So often they wanted a woman with red hair and soft skin and green eyes. And I had all those features. But, in the end, it was for the best for all of us. And nothing will ever change that deep brotherly love I feel for them, even if I absolutely HATE being called brother. <3 ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Oh, you’ve had so many names. Your dark hair Your dark skin Your hazel eyes. And did I love you! What I wouldn’t do To be there beside you! Did I ever love you! What I wouldn’t do To spend my time with you! Please, please don’t go. Please don’t leave me, Be my David And I’ll be Jonathan. I’ll love you better Than any woman can. Please, please don’t go. Not so far away from me. Be my David I’ll be your Jonathan. Love you better Than any woman can. Oh, you always wanted the same. Her red hair Her soft skin Her green eyes. And did I love you! What I wouldn’t do To be there beside you! Did I ever love you! What I wouldn’t do To spend my life with you! Please, please don’t go. Please don’t leave me. Be my David And I’ll be Jonathan. I’ll love you better Than any woman can. Please, please don’t go. Not so far away from me. Be my David I’ll be your Jonathan. Love you better Than any woman can. I died a little inside Each time You called me brother. You don’t have to touch me. You don’t have to kiss me. Just Please Please don’t go. Please don’t leave me. Be my David And I’ll be Jonathan. I’ll love you better Than any woman can. Please, please don’t go. Not so far away from me. Be my David I’ll be your Jonathan. Love you better. I realize now you had to go. Now I can finally see. You’re still my David And I’m still your Jonathan. I’ll love you the way That only a gay brother can. And do I love you! And I’m happy for you. You’re my David. And I’m your Jonathan. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
