Whats it all about, this crazy love
How did our two worlds entwine
How do I fit in to your life
How did you get into mine
I belong to someone else we know
Back when first we met
Oh, we thought for fun
One night together might be nice
Oh...oh...but fun turned into love for both of us
So now we pay forbidden lovers price
Oh, cause love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
You pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy)
Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy), ohoh
Nights when youre alone, you know that I
Laid with someone else beside me
Oh, but you love me still and I love you
You know I would no matter where Id be
Hey, but love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy)
Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
We got to pay some agony if we wanna have ecstasy (For the ecstasy), oh...
Hey, got to pay some agony
If we wanna have an ecstasy, yeaheah
And we need each other desperately, dont we, baby
And Ill never from you be free, no, no
So youll have to do the leavin me, yeah
And youll have to do the leavin me, oh, baby
Cause Im gonna pay the agony, yeah
Cause, oh, lovin you is ecstasy, thats what it is
And Im willin to pay the price, oh
Cause Ill make it a sacrifice, oh, yes, I will
And Ill never, never, never, never, never, never, never be free
From agony
