It’s another compromise
When you take into account all the lies he said, yeah
You’ve been dreaming for so long
That he’ll take you in his bed and make it yours, yeah, yeah
But you never took into account
The way he looked at her
And you’ll never see it through it to the end
We all want something of ours
To make us the face that
Stands out from the crowd
We all want something of ours
To shine like gold, taste like wine
And bloom like a flower
It’s been a long 30 years
Where did the time go you gave to him?
Now you’ve gone and turned it in
Into a story that’ll never end
What did you gain from all the pain
But you never took into account
The way he looked at her
And you’ll never see it through it to the end
We all want something of ours
To make us the face that
Stands out from the crowd
We all want something of ours
To shine like gold, taste like wine
And bloom like a flower
And still you hold on
To every old song
He didn’t answer your calls for so long
Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
We all want something of ours
To make us the face that
Stands out from the crowd
We all want something of ours
To shine like gold, taste like wine
And bloom like a flower
We all want something of ours (It’s another compromise when you take into account all the lies)
To shine like gold, taste like wine, and bloom like a flower (It’s another compromise when you take into account all the lies)
He said, yeah
