lyrics

Here in the dark
All alone in a restaurant
Empty glass in hand
Where did it go?
That supple alacrity
Help me understand

Will you compromise
All the starlight in your eyes
Will you convince your heartbreak
All of the lies
Just so you can say
You were always…

Late in the morning
The breeze fills the atrium
with jasmine-scented air
But your in your room
Like a monk in a monastery
Drunk on old affairs

Back in the barn
I left you a flower
To say that I think of you now
And, you can pick petals
And see what that settles
As if it could somehow

Will you compromise
All of the sunlight in your eyes
Will you convince your heartbreak
All of the lies
Just so you can say
You were always true

Same as it was
So it will always be
Painful ripples of time
So, take what you’ve learned
Abandon the misery
And make your mission mine

Will you compromise
All of the colors in the skies
Will you convince your heartbreak
All of the lies
Just so you can say
You were always true
