A father`s love, I never knew
He upped and left when I was two
Grew up without his protection
He wasn`t there to guide my direction
In search of love, I made a mistake
I had a child I could not forsake
The worst in life, I`ve been through
The best that happened to me was you
CHORUS:
You`re the only bargain I`ve got
To me, my love, you mean a lot
You`re the only bargain I`ve got
Without your love, what have I got?
(You`re the only bargain I`ve got
Without your love, what have I got?)
I gave my love so foolishly
Each affair hurted me
I was lost without a friend
Seems that life was at its end
From out of nowhere, you arrived,
Gave me the love I was deprived
With your love inside, I feel
I couldn`t have found a better deal
CHORUS
INSTRUMENTAL BRIDGE
To think of all that I`ve been through
The hurt, the shame, the heartache too
The price of love was much too high
`Cause when I gave, I was still denied
All along, men have done me wrong
`Til the day you came along
I gave my love all in vain
You gave me more in a fair exchange
CHORUS
(repeat and fade out)
