No Compromise Songtext

No Compromise Songtext
The sun comes up on another day
I trace the lines on your sleeping face
Remembering a time, a sweeter place
Before the shadows came to stay
I hold my breath, wait for the storm
Will you wake up with a gentle hand?
Or a bitter word I can′t withstand?
It's a dance I know, a painful norm
′Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I'm a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don′t know the person I can't compromise
You take my hand and pull me close
Whisper a promise, a sweet repose
The person I love, the one I chose
Is shining through, and my hope just grows
But then the monster, it takes its hold
Turns your heart to ice, your words to stone
Leaves me here, feeling all alone
A story of love, that′s getting old
'Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I′m a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don't know the person I can't compromise
Just a flicker, a moment so brief
A memory that′s my one relief
That underneath all the anger and grief
Is a soul I know, beyond all belief
And I can′t walk away, I can't say goodbye
I′m just waiting for the storm to pass by
'Cause I saw a glimpse of heaven, and I can′t lie
I'll fight for that person, until I die
′Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I'm a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don′t know the person I can't compromise
No, they don′t know the person I can't compromise
Just waiting for the real you to rise
I trace the lines on your sleeping face
Remembering a time, a sweeter place
Before the shadows came to stay
I hold my breath, wait for the storm
Will you wake up with a gentle hand?
Or a bitter word I can′t withstand?
It's a dance I know, a painful norm
′Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I'm a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don′t know the person I can't compromise
You take my hand and pull me close
Whisper a promise, a sweet repose
The person I love, the one I chose
Is shining through, and my hope just grows
But then the monster, it takes its hold
Turns your heart to ice, your words to stone
Leaves me here, feeling all alone
A story of love, that′s getting old
'Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I′m a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don't know the person I can't compromise
Just a flicker, a moment so brief
A memory that′s my one relief
That underneath all the anger and grief
Is a soul I know, beyond all belief
And I can′t walk away, I can't say goodbye
I′m just waiting for the storm to pass by
'Cause I saw a glimpse of heaven, and I can′t lie
I'll fight for that person, until I die
′Cause I see the real you, behind the haze
A laugh that used to light up my days
A tender touch that still remains
A ghost of who you were, running through my veins
And they say I'm a fool, to stand in the rain
For a love that's nothing but sorrow and pain
But they didn′t see the light in your eyes
They don′t know the person I can't compromise
No, they don′t know the person I can't compromise
Just waiting for the real you to rise
