Giving In Lyrics

Stuart Davis Giving In

I'm not opposed to giving in
but who's interest would that be in?
Love's what compromise is for
as long as half the giving's yours

I don't object that you make me wait
stranded in a neutral state
Patience is a virtue, true
but patience has it's boundaries too

And I don't mind you hide our love
there's someone else you must think of
I'll aid your case to any length
but secrets aren't the path to strength

And I won't resist the tender cage
I won't withdrawal in fear or rage
the greater I survive, the more I am alive

I don't care if you don't trust
or think my motives born of lust
Faith can be my gift to you
but gifts must have their limits too

Patience is a virtue, true
but patience has it's boundaries too
