The Price Of Fame

(album: Hooba Dooba - 2010)

Who we are is plain to see
Once nothing separated you and me
The life we lived and the dreams we made
The lovers lost with all those games we played

And now you think it's me who's changed
And everything that's happening was prearranged
Ok, I guess a page was turned
And suddenly I looked around our bridge was burned

But why am I still trying to explain
Am I the only one to feel the shame?

Part of me is part of you
And I still miss the special things we used to do
You say it's me who wouldn't stay
But maybe it was really you who backed away
We make our choice and we look for blame
And we both pay the price of fame
The price of fame

And yes it's sad we're in this place
Maybe in my moment I might have lost some grace
I know you're thinking I left the past behind
But out of sight don't mean it's out of mind

But why am I still trying to explain?
You're not the only one to feel the pain

Part of me is part of you
And I still miss the special things we used to do
You say it's me who wouldn't stay
But maybe it was really you who backed away
Yeah, part of you is still part of me
I close my eyes and long for how it used to be
And you might say I broke away
But so many times I called you turned the other way

We make our choice and we look for blame
And we both pay the price of fame
That ball and chain
The price of fame
