Unconditional Love - Esperanza Spalding

Written by：Esperanza Spalding

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love

Faded cliches and makeup

Dancing and singing scripted delight

Every act ends in breakup

That same old boring story I played too many nights

The curtain ends up falling

Then arrows strike my heart

Oh but oh

If some realness should find me

Like the magic in your eyes oh

If your eyes would invite me oh

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love

For my finale waiting

Off in the wings to sing the last song

And when we're done pretending

Throw me a white bouquet

Oh I close the curtain behind me

And enclose me in your arms oh

If your arms would invite me oh

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love

We could change the whole story of love

Same old play I'm getting tired of

No more acting these predictable roles

Just us living

Unconditional love
