I was doing fine without ya I had no one on my mind I was dancin' right behind ya Drinkin' gin and lime And then you came marching over About to change my history When you tapped me on my shoulder And, oh so casually Like pollen to a bee You said these words to me... "Sweetheart you're a lover Danger through and through So I'll tell you something you already knew That there's freedom in the madness But you pay the devil too" I enjoy the spell I'm under. Bad days are over, I'm almost sure. But in the morning I wake and wonder, What did you say before? What do I pay for? Oh, repeat it just once more "Sweetheart you're a lover, Danger through and through So I'll tell you something you already knew That there's freedom in the madness But you pay the devil too. Yes there's freedom in the madness But you pay the devil too" I saw you sittin' this last Sunday In a bar, lookin' awful blue. Sculling back your whiskey soda I slowly came to you, Took a breath or two... I know you'll be okay. Don't forget what they say, You pay and you pay. I know I'll be okay, Yes it's true what they say, You pay and you pay. And you pay. And you pay. And you pay. And you pay. And you pay.
