[D. Snider]

You and I, we lit the fire
We build it, baby, my desire
But now you say I overdo it
Be careful, baby, don't make me choose it

[CHORUS:]

Oh, always, oh, always gotta pay the price
Oughta hear who'd love for free
Gotta pay the price
Oh, pay the price for loving me, yeah

I need your love to be a man
But oh lord, honey, you don't understand, no
But both our lives have just begun
I just can't trade these two for one

[REPEAT CHORUS]

Ah, for love of me, yeah

[Solo - Eddie]

Oh, you and I, we lit the fire
We build it, baby, my desire
You want me to be your lover
Well, now you start to pay, there'll be no other

[REPEAT CHORUS 2x]

Ah, for love of me, yeah
