| 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

|
| To make us the face that

|
| 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
|

|
| To shine like gold, taste like wine, and bloom like a flower (It's another
