Analysis of Compromises
William Gant 1964 (Florida)
Our love is very special
When it's shared between us two
Honest, trusting, and sincere
It is all too good to be true
People see our togetherness
And not what goes on behind closed doors
But what we know is in one's heart
Has never been explored
But why is a relationship filled with complications and surprises
But when it is done and over
We see the bitter deceptions
But never the compromises.
