Song lyrics

Two weeks in a Virginia jail

For my lover for my lover

Twenty thousand dollar bail

For my lover for my lover


And everybody thinks

That I'me the fool

But they don't get

Any love from you

The things we won't do for love


I'd climb a mountain if I had to

And risk my life so I could have you

You, you, you...


Everyday I'm psychoanalyzed

For my lover for my lover

They dope me up and I tell them lies

For my lover for my lover


I follow my heart

And leave my head to ponder

Deep in this love

No man can shake


I follow my heart

And leave my mind to wonder

Is this love worth

The sacrifices I make
