Love Is The Price
DJ Bobo · Greatest Hits [2006]
Rap 1:
Baby's in the parlour
Waiting for the rain
Beating like a hammer
Washing out her pain
Clearing like the one
Seven years ago
When her first big love
Melted like snow
Back then she doubet
If she would ever find a man
Who could love her that way
The same way again
And just when she thought
She's living in vain
The man of her dreams
Came like the rain
Refrain:
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Love is the price
Freedom is the cost
And just when you think
Everything is lost
Love will be your price
And I know I would not change a thing
Yes I know I wouldn't change a thing
Rap 2:
They spoke about her dreams
They spoke about love
They spoke about the things she was so afraid of
He had the key-word
For everything she felt
So it didn't take long
'till he got her nailed
Pin one's hope on someone elses life
And all your dreams
Will hurt you like a knife
She soon got lost
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Refrain:
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Love is the price
Freedom is the cost
And just when you think
Everything is lost
Love will be your prize
And I know I would not change a thing
Yes I know I wouldn't change a thing
Rap 3:
She didn't trust that very first man
To come into her life trying to understand
What nobody ever could before
He only made her see
There is something more
To learn about freedom
To learn about love
To handle all the things she was so afraid of
To always follow what she really felt inside
Everything else was a rollercoaster ride
Baby's in the parlour
Waiting for the rain
Beating like a hammer
Washing out her pain
Clearing like the one
Seven years ago
When her first big love
Melted like snow
Back then she doubet
If she would ever find a man
Who could love her that way
The same way again
And just when she thought
She's living in vain
The man of her dreams
Came like the rain
Refrain:
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Love is the price
Freedom is the cost
And just when you think
Everything is lost
Love will be your price
And I know I would not change a thing
Yes I know I wouldn't change a thing
Rap 2:
They spoke about her dreams
They spoke about love
They spoke about the things she was so afraid of
He had the key-word
For everything she felt
So it didn't take long
'till he got her nailed
Pin one's hope on someone elses life
And all your dreams
Will hurt you like a knife
She soon got lost
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Refrain:
When love is the price
Freedom is the cost
Love is the price
Freedom is the cost
And just when you think
Everything is lost
Love will be your prize
And I know I would not change a thing
Yes I know I wouldn't change a thing
