Paying The Price
One thing I've never learned is how to give up So it's my destiny to bear this fate They say that I'm still young but I'd better hurry up And they're talking 'bout change And it's a little too late I'm really not just jumping to conclusions It's all a matter of fact clear of illusions You'll never love me the way I love you So I'm paying the price All my life Just when I think I'm moving along You come back singing a different song A song of love, a song of sweet regret Full of promises which are never met And I'm paying the price All my life I know I'll love you still when I have grown old Though you'll have taken all of my good years And you'll have taken every chance away from me My master for life All my life Just when I think you'll let me be SongtexteI'll awake knowing you've been haunting me All day long I'll hear you singing in my head The voice I love, the voice I dread And I'm paying the price All my life Just when I think I'm finally free I hear a voice gently calling me Saying I'm just a little melody What could be the harm in writing me? And I'm paying the price All my life And I'm paying the price All my life Paying the price All my life Paying the price Aus Songtexte Mania
