The Price Of Love

Deep into baby blues I gaze

Slowly tracing the contours of her face

One arm wrapped gingerly around her waist

Minutes slowly passing to times joyous waste

She whispers so softly words I can’t believe 

She tells me she can’t stand the thought of being alive

How all these lies about her life rage in her mind 

How could someone who comforts me so

Let all the lies and deceit take control

Bearing the weight of your world in my mind

I hope you know I’d give anything for you to feel alive

I can’t bear the thought of saying goodbye

That’s why I will only ever say goodnight
