Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, I love ya
Oh oh oh, I love ya
I do, I do
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, I love ya
Oh oh oh, I love ya
I do, I do

I told you why we just can't make it
I want you still but I just can't take it
The time has come we ought to break it
Someone had to pay the price

Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, it's over
Oh oh oh, it's over
It's true, it's true
Oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, it's over
Oh oh oh, it's over
It's true, It's true

I think of times we were together
As time went on it seemed forever
Times have changed now things are better
Someone had to pay the price

And I think of times we were together
As time went on it seemed forever
Times have changed now things are better
Someone had to pay the price

    A very wicked song. One of the Ramones's best songs. Rooney does a really good tribute of it on the tribute album. I think it's about breaking up with a girl because you can't handle the relationship anymore and things will be better off when the two of you are split up but part of you still wants to keep pursuing the relationship and part of you still likes her.

    its pretty depressing that 3 of the Ramones are dead now (the main ones to). If I could see one band live, that I was never able to see, it would definetly be the Ramones.

    RIP Joey, JOhnny, Dee Dee. Yer all too tough to die.

    Tommy, Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny...you're all too tough to die
