For my lover

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 m the fool

they dont get

any love from you

the things we wont do for love

i'd climb a mountain if i had to

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

and everybody thinks

that i m the fool

but they dont get

any love from you

the things we wont do for love

i'd climb a mountain if i had to

risk my life so i could have you

you, you, you...

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?
