Something Of Ours

Pascal Adam

It's another compromise, 
When you take into account all the lies he said 
You've been dreaming for so long, 
That he'll take you in his bed and make it yours 
But you never took into account 
The way he looked at her 
And you'll never see it through the end 
We all want something of ours 
To make us the face that 
Stands out from the crowd 
We all want something of ours 
To shine like gold, taste like wine, 
And bloom like a flower 
It's been a long 30 years, 
Where did the time go you gave to him 
Now you've gone and turned it in, 
Into a story that'll never end 
What did you gain from all the pain 
But you never took into account 
The way he looked at her 
And you'll never see it through to the end 
We all want something of ours 
To make us the face that stands out 
From the crowd 
We all want something of ours 
To shine like gold, taste like wine, 
And bloom like a flower 
And still you hold on 
To every old song 
He didn't answer your calls for so long
