Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The wine is sweet, the gin is bitter
Drink all you can but you won't forget her
[Verse 2]
You talk too much, you laugh too loud
You see her face in every crowd
[Verse 3]
And that's the price of love, the price of love
A debt you pay with tears and pain
The price of love, the price of love
It costs you more when you're to blame
[Verse 4]
Kiss one girl, kiss another
Kiss them all but you won't recover
[Verse 5]
You're dancin' slow, you're dancin' fast
You're happy now but that won't last
[Verse 6]
And that's the price of love, the price of love
A debt you pay with tears and pain
The price of love, the price of love
It costs you more when you're to blame
[Verse 7]
Kiss one, kiss one
Kiss one, kiss one
[Verse 8]
Kiss one girl, kiss another
Kiss them all but you won't recover
[Verse 9]
You're dancin' slow, you're dancin' fast
You're happy now but that won't last
[Verse 10]
And that's the price of love, the price of love
A debt you pay with tears and pain
The price of love, the price of love
It costs you more when you're to blame
