Bargain
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I had
To find you, I'd suffer anything
And be glad.
I'd pay any price just to get you
I'd work all my life and I will
To win you, I'd stand naked, stoned, and stabbed.
I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
Best I ever had.
I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you, I'm gonna run
And never stop.
I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad.
To find you, I'm gonna drown an unsung man.
I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had
Best I ever had.
I sit looking 'round
I look at my face in the mirror
I know I'm worth nothing
Without you.
In life, one and one don't make two
One and one make one
And I'm looking for
That free ride to me
I'm looking for you
Looking for you.
I'd gladly lose me to find you
I'd gladly give up all I got
To catch you, I'm gonna run
And never stop.
I'd pay any price just to win you
Surrender my good life for bad.
To find you, I'm gonna drown an unsung man.
I'd call that a bargain
The best I ever had.
The best I ever haaaaad
