compromise

compromise
love is compromise
compromise
love is compromise
right before your eyes
it takes off your disguise
love is compromise
oh oh, compromise

it would be nice to hold someone tonight
to feel the softness of a lover's touch
to rest against a supple breast, alright
sometimes i miss a hug so much
but complications and controls
the human mind has other goals
confused hearts judge and condemn
other bodies and souls
is that the way the cookie rolls?

i don't want to buy or sell you
don't want you to own me
promises can come later
with the illusion of eternity

what i am trying to say is
tomorrow is light years away
and i don't want to waste any energy
on what might or might never be
or words we do not want to say
today

so please don't tell me lies
and dreams can keep for when we sleep
speak to me with your hands and thighs
let this moment make love so deep
that there is no other time
no alibis
just compromise

compromise
love is compromise
compromise
love is compromise
right before your eyes
it takes off your disguise
love is compromise
oh oh oh, compromise

if tomorrow you're still here
maybe we will grow to care
and reach for more things to share
be together everywhere
but each moment matters more
and the one that came before
and the one that's yet to be
that's tomorrow's fantasy

right now i feel you next to me
and inside you can feel me rise
touch the moment's reality
dive into each others eyes
form the bond between our lips
bring heaven down from the skies
unison dance in our hips
this is love without the lies
no other place no other time
no alibis
just compromise

compromise
love is compromise
compromise
love is compromise
right before your eyes
it takes off your disguise
love is compromise
oh oh oh oh, compromise

i am me and you are you
whatever else might be true
we can agree with our eyes
leave behind all the old lies
here is space, now is time
no alibis
just compromise

there is ice and there is fire
whatever else we may desire
we can agree with our thighs
leave behind all the old lies
here is space, now is time
no alibis
just compromise

compromise
love is compromise
compromise
love is compromise
right before your eyes
it takes off your disguise
love is compromise
oh oh oh oh, compromise
oh oh oh oh, compromise
oh oh oh oh, compromise
