Lyrics Compromise - Imran Ajmain

Love is not a given
You're not forgiven
But we all easily submit
You have forsaken
What you have taken
And we all still incomplete

I thought we were playing a similar game
And after these years, it's still been the same
And you, of all people, still have your name
What about compromise?

It's not I don't want you, I want you
But I need you to be
A little bit faithful and grateful and loyal to my needs
Don't think I was selfish, I was selfless
And after all I've given you
It's not I don't love you, I love you
Well, at least I try to

Trust is not an object
You could reject
But we all easily believe
You have been waiting
And all I've been saying
"Please be there for me"

It's not like we got a thousand years
I've yet to express to you all my fears
And while you have wasted all of your tears
What about compromise?
Why do I pay the price? (Why do I pay the price?)

It's not I don't want you, I want you
But I need you to be
A little bit faithful and grateful and loyal to my needs
Don't think I was selfish, I was selfless
And after all I've given you
It's not I don't love you, I love you
Well, at least I try to

I know I'm not perfect, but I deserve respect
And after all that's said and done
You remain the only one in my heart
So did we pick a good fight
To prove who's wrong and who's right?
Can we finally compromise?

It's not I don't want you, I want you
But I need you to be
A little bit faithful and grateful and loyal to my needs
Don't think I was selfish, I was selfless
And after all I've given you
It's not I don't love you, I love you
Well, at least I try to

It's not I don't want you, I want you
But I need you to be
A little bit faithful and grateful and loyal to my needs
Don't think I was selfish, I was selfless
And after all I've given you
It's not I don't love you, I love you
Well, at least I try to
