Price To Pay |
Standing here with a tale to tell |
I might as well tell to you |
Nothing near Wagnerian |
As Terminator Two |
It’s an old one about a little dirt farm girl |
Who wanted to get out for good |
She’d do anything to keep that dream |
She’d do anything she could |
Who was she |
To feel so free |
With her heart on her sleeve |
She just couldn’t believe… |
There was a price to pay |
Her very first chance to escape that year |
Came when the circus had come to town |
She wound up in bed and quite madly in love |
With some rubber nose juggling clown |
He promised he’d return for her come next spring |
And he swore that he wouldn’t forget |
Needless to say come the following May |
More than her appetite was getting wet |
She proceeded unheeded and quite undefeated |
To the trailer behind the tents |
And her heart began to soar at his trailer door |
She was gonna go wherever he went |
Who was she |
To feel so free |
With her heart on her sleeve |
She just couldn’t believe… |
There was a price to pay |
He arrived at last at about half past |
With a girl under every arm |
But all of this in itself could have been innocent as hell |
But what began to cause her alarm |
Was when he locked the door behind him like she’d always been |
She was standing alone in the dirt |
And her eyes were so dry that she began to cry |
And something began to hurt |
She wanted to tear the hair out of her head |
Yeah and she wanted to wish that she was dead |
But a voice in her just would not let her drop |
And her heart began to break but it didn’t stop |
«Run all you’re races |
And don’t you fear |
You and I |
Are getting out of here |
And we’ll survive |
That I guarantee |
Cause you don’t need much |
When all you have is me» |
She listened to the little voice in her |
And then she hit the road |
Free at last and with just a tiny scar |
And finally on her own |
No one knows what became of her |
All we know is she got away |
And though there really ain’t no guarantees down here |
I like to think she did okay |
Who was she |
To feel so free |
With her heart on her sleeve |
She just wouldn’t believe |
That there’s a price to pay |
That there’s a price to pay |
That there’s a price to pay |
That there’s a price to pay |
