The Price -

What a wreck we’ve made of our sweet love

What a sorrow and a shame

To reject a gift from God above

To throw it down and walk away

An angel sheds a tear from high

To mourn a wonder lost

And to mark the petty victories

Won at such a cost

What a rare and fragile thing love is

So delicate and fine

If you tend to it with tenderness

Then it will pay you back in kind

But angry words from bitter lips

Wither love away

Broken hearts and empty arms are the price we pay

And I would give what’s left of my small worth

For it not to end this way

Broken hearts and empty arms are the price we pay

Now I’m standing on this empty shore

Watching ripples on a lake

How they spread and grow from one small stone

Like echoes of our sad mistakes

Can you find forgiveness in your heart?

I’ll look for it mine

Or was our sweet love just a wishing star

That’s fallen from the sky?

And I would give my world for one sweet ray of hope

To light your face

And to lie again in your sweet arms

There’s no price I would not pay

Yes to find again the love we’ve lost

There’s no price I would not pay
