Price Lyrics - Herman Brood

We were lovers on the beach 

the waves were curlin' round our feet 

we were lovers in the back of the car 

told each other we would never be apart 

These days it's sad but it's true 

Every word I say is bouncin' off on you 

for you baby I ruin my hands 

you've got me cleanin' the pots & the pans 

I sold my soul 

she's got me in the palm of her hand 

I've got a feelin' I've made a mistake 

since none of my friends come around no more 

I've got a funny feelin' somethin's wrong 

no more ringin' the phone no knockin' on my door 

Chorus: 

O what a price I've got to pay 

lovin' you 

This ghostlike feelin's gettin' stronger 

I just can't hide no longer 

I hate to see it fade away 

the truth I've got to face someday 

Chorus: 

O what a price I've got to pay 

lovin' you 

I've got to pay 

lovin' you 

She's like a nightclub in the mornin' 

she's the bitter end 

like a desinfected toilet 

only clean around the bend 

she's countin' up the bottles 

she's checkin' out the gossip 

she got nightmares of a rapist 

she don't know what love is 

Chorus: 

O what a price I've got to pay 

lovin' you 

I've got to pay 

lovin' you
