The Compromise

Every time I’m near you and I feel this way

I’m in love today

Every time I hold you in my arms

I’m in love today

Doesn’t matter what you think about our history

All that matters is to know

When you are here with me

I am free to be me, really me

And we fly to the top of the world

To a place of our own

At the top of the world

Here at the top of the world

Here at the top of the world

In life there seems to always be this compromise

The thing that brought me freedom

Nearly led to my demise

But now the oceans roar

And the gardens grow

Till the end of time will I let you go?

No way, no way

No way, no way

No way, no way

No way, no way

On the precipice I contemplated mysteries

Along this narrow path, awaited empathy

Now I’m free to be me, really me

And we fly to the top of the world

To a place of our own

At the top of the world

Here at the top of the world

Here at the top of the world

In life there seems to always be this compromise

The thing that brought me freedom

Clearly led to my disguise

On the ocean floor

And the desert moon

Till the end of time will I tire of you?

No way, no way

No way, no way

No way, no way

No way, no way

Listen, listen

Listen to the breeze

Listen, listen

Listen to the breeze
