Indigo Girls - Compromise lyrics

the cloth

of finest lands

the touch of women the toil of hands

undress

me now

before i bend

from the weight of everyman

when i'm walking through this world

i need to hold your hand

let me take you on this ride

i hope you understand

i'm not asking for a compromise

now you

defend

exhume

begin again

it's the riddle of a skeleton

we're all

diseased

so count the coup

i can't image stopping you

when i'm walking through this world

i need to hold your hand

let me take you on this ride

i hope you understand

i'm not asking for a compromise

so the earth

we scorch

we breath

find some comfort on our knees

you find

your worth

in words that wind

pleasures i don't comprehend

when i'm walking trough this world

i need to hold your hand

let me take you on this ride

i hope you understand

i'm not asking for a compromise

asking for a compro

asking for a compromise
