The Agony and the Ecstasy
Love's Dilemma: Agony and Ecstasy Unveiled
Lyrics
What's it all about, this crazy love
Reflecting on the complexities of love and questioning its nature.
How did our two worlds entwine
Wondering how the speaker's and the listener's lives became intertwined.
How do I fit in to your life
Contemplating the role of the speaker in the listener's life.
How did you get into mine
Pondering how the listener entered the speaker's life.
I belong to someone else we know
Acknowledging that the speaker is committed to someone else.
Back when first we met
Recalling the initial meeting between the speaker and the listener.
Oh, we thought for fun
Initially considering their connection as a source of amusement.
One night together might be nice
Suggesting a casual expectation for a single night together.
Oh... Oh... But fun turned into love for both of us
Expressing that the casual encounter evolved into a profound love.
So now we pay forbidden lover's price
Acknowledging the consequences and challenges of forbidden love.
Oh, cause love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
Stating that their type of love always comes at a cost.
You pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy)
Affirming the payment of agony for the joy of ecstasy in love.
Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
Reiterating that their love is not without its difficulties.
You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy) oh, oh
Emphasizing the recurring theme of paying a price for ecstasy.
Nights when you're alone, you know that I
Addressing the challenges of being apart when alone.
Laid with someone else beside me
Admitting the speaker's involvement with someone else in lonely moments.
Oh, but you love me still and I love you
Asserting that despite the challenges, mutual love persists.
You know I would no matter where I'd be
Reaffirming love regardless of the speaker's location.
Hey, but love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
Reiterating that their love comes with a price.
You got to pay some agony for the ecstasy (For the ecstasy)
Stressing the inevitability of agony in their love story.
Oh, love like ours is never, ever free (Free)
Emphasizing the recurring theme of the cost of their love.
We got to pay some agony if we wanna have ecstasy (For the ecstasy), oh...
Highlighting the necessity of enduring agony for the sake of ecstasy.
Hey, got to pay some agony
Repeating the idea that there is a cost to be paid.
If we wanna have an ecstasy, yeah
Affirming the need to endure agony for the experience of ecstasy.
And we need each other desperately, don't we baby
Expressing the mutual dependence and desperation for each other.
And I'll never from you be free, no, no
Declaring a commitment despite the impossibility of being free.
So you'll have to do the leavin' me, yeah
Accepting that one of them will have to initiate separation.
And you'll have to do the leavin' me, oh, baby
Repeating the inevitability of the need for separation.
Cause I'm gonna pay the agony, yeah
Affirming the speaker's readiness to endure the agony of separation.
Cause, oh, lovin' you is ecstasy, that's what it is

And I'm willin' to pay the price, oh

Cause I'll make it a sacrifice, oh, yes, I will

And I'll never, never, never, never, never, never, never be free
Emphasizing the perpetual lack of freedom from the agony of love.
From agony
Concluding that agony is an inseparable part of their love.
