Lyrics Cowboy Junkies – A Bride’s Price
Text:
I was forced to pay a bride’s price
I couldn’t look the other way.
She hooked me with her “fuck me” eyes,
they still haunt me to this day.
She says, “only you can know these secrets
buried deep beneath my skin, only your tongue
can uncover them.”
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
In a room as cold as Winter
I explored her with my hands.
She said, “darling you must forgive, in order to understand”.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
My breathe it slowly left me
I snaked my way inside.
The next thing that I knew
you were not lying by my side.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
In the end we find a single door
and all the things we should have done.
Piled high on all the surfaces,
fears, excuses given.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaah
