He met her when he was so young She met him, looking for fun He fell in love the moment he saw her She didn't feel quite the same way He promised her a better life together But that gave her no peace of mind He made plans to be together forever But she had plans of a very different kind When love goes one direction And when love is a spurned affection When love only causes depression The very thin line between love and hate All his loving meant so little to her All his pleading and crying, it went unheard His love not returned Now he's compromised Compromised With here there's no negotiating Compromised With her it's mostly hating He said he couldn't live without her She said he could if he only tried He said: "I'll love you, I'll love you forever" She said: "What's the meaning of love?" And then he said: "Real love should never be denied" Compromised With here there's no negotiating Compromised With her it's mostly hating Compromised (Compromised) C-O-M-P-R-I-S-E-D (Compromised Compromised) (Compromised Compromised) C-O-M-P-R-I-S-E-D C-O-M-P-R-I-S-E-D Compromised Compromised With her it's only hating Compromised With her it's only hating (Compromised)
