Compromise

lyrics

Compromise

Jack don’t want Jill around
Doesn’t like it when things tumble down
Jill don’t want Jack no more
Sick of fixing his crown as he walks out the door
He says he don’t miss her in the morning
She says she don’t need him in the afternoon
In the dead of night the pitch black calls her name

No one’s telling any lies
No one’s going to compromise

Moonlight walking in the sand
Love-struck dreamers holding hands
Speak their minds and laugh
Then drop down onto the grass
Satellites flash across the heaven
Orion points his sword up high
Frozen breathe but the fire wins

If you cry I will hold you
If you’re afraid I will be bold for you
If you’re alone I’ll be around
If you need space I’ll disappear
If you smile I will flower
You are my strength and my power
But if you close down to me babe I won’t be here
