Il testo della Sacrifice

(m. liffengren/p. liffengren)

I just got off the phone today
With a good friend of mine
She mentioned something bout her family
And having a real good time
Wouldn't it be great to see them
Wouldn't it be great to be with them
But i had my own plans for this is my life
I thought about all the words
That were shared between the two of us
For a moment i paused then i realized
If she gives into me, it would be great for my reason
Instead i could sacrifice, just a little bit of my time
If there's one thing that i've learned over the years
Without sacrifice - there isn't love
If a side of me just won't give in
And i'd rather be on my own
Than i'd never grow, i'd never know
Sacrifice - sacrifice
I heard somebody say, to get love
You gotta give it away
And i felt something tugging at my heart that day
I knew i should pick up the phone
And tell her that i'd go along
When i did, she thanked me, now i wrote this song...
I once read about a man
Who gave of himself to the very end
He sacrificed his life for you and me
I wanna learn to be like him
And give love instead of taking it in
For it's better to give than to receive
I still believe, in sacrifice
