Compromise

Baby when you go to sleep make sure the lights are on
Cuz I don't like them off
I don't like it dark
I think we should compromise

Baby when you go to sleep you say the light hurts your eyes
That is no surprise
Because they're dark dark brown like the way I like

And it felt good
To play pretend
Getting high and hanging with your best friend

But sometimes it gets sad cuz I know I can't protect you
And what you've been through
But that will not
Stop from trying

So let me tell you why I like the lights turned on
Because I won't start
Taking you for granted
Even for a second

It also has to do with the fact that I want to see your face
Fill up my space
Let's stay up late
And have
Deep conversations

But you always pass out before 1:00 a.m.
I will remember them
Every time you said
That you
We're having a good time

But what I wouldn't give not to see you hurt
And for what it's worth
You've seen the worst
But now
It only gets better

So let me tell you why I like the lights turned on
Cuz I won't start
Taking you for granted
Even for a second

So let's just agree to keep the lights turned on
And let's think upon
The fact
That you are loved
