Lyrics
The Price of Love
(I'm cryin'...)
VERSE 1: There goes my baby with another man,
What's goin' on I can't understand.
She's the only girl I've been dreamin' of,
But that's the price of love.
VERSE 2: She said, she loved me, then she said goodbye.
I was happy but, now I cry.
I lost the girl I've been dreamin' of,
But that's the price of love.
VERSE 3: Oh, who can help me now? What can I do,
When my baby's found someone new?
I lost everything I'd been dreamin' of,
But that's the price of love.
VERSE 4: Wake me up now from this dream,
Things just can't be what they seem,
I guess I'll have to pay the price of love.
BRIDGE: Oh, what can I do to make her want me?
What can I do to heal this heart of mine?
VERSE 5: Now, there she goes again, passing me by,
And I'm standing here just a-wondering why.
I need some help, from up above,
But that's the price of love.
VERSE 6: There goes my baby with another man,
What's goin' on I can't understand.
I tried every single thing I could think of,
But that's the price of love.
Oh, the price of love.
Oh no, the price of love.
Oh, yeah, the price of love.
