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

alonenss


feeling the aloneness
not as lonely as I used to get
is that something that I should regret
as the longing for loving touches diminishes
with each passing year
knowing the end is closer now
than it’s ever been
knowing the best of life’s time
is way back when
at least physically
there’s not much left of me
and yet the magic only takes a moment
and one moment of true love is an eternity
so I hope as always
it’ll happen to me

just one more moment before this body dies
just one more moment of this life’s greatest high
just one more moment of the sharing of love’s bliss
just one more moment, one more touch, one more kiss

feeling the isolation
not as frightened as I used to get
is that something that I should regret
as the desperation to be loved diminishes
with each passing year
knowing it’s not worth much unless
someone wants to give it
knowing all the wanting in the world
will not make someone else live it
and so physically
there’s no one here with me
and I don’t pretend I can force anyone
share true love, so I wait and let it be
and I hope as always
someone will love me

just one more moment before this body dies
just one more moment of this life’s greatest high
just one more moment of the sharing of love’s bliss
just one more moment, one more touch, one more kiss

softly, sweetly, touch the sweet sensation
