the high price of love

Singer:band, the

i can see in the mirror that edge had a little fuzz

her business card didn't tell me what her business was

a beautiful care package sent to a starving man

i ate all of that and i was hungry again. i heard a sound

a knock on the door

that room was empty

she ain't live there anymore

i was standin' there

reflecting on my own

what's gonna happen to that five hundred dollar loan?

it ain't worth it cryin' these tears

put 'em all in a vile

fill it up to here

toss 'em all into the persian gulf

forget about it

man

just write it off. as a high price of love

as a high price of love. there's something wrong all across the nation

everybody

everywhere

is a victim of inflation

someone takes advantage

thinks they won't get beat

they think they got a bargain but they're only got it cheap. it ain't worth it cryin' these tears

put 'em all in a vile

fill it up to here

toss 'em all into the persian gulf

forget about it

man

just write it off. as a high price of love

high price of love. 'cause it ain't worth it cryin' these tears

put 'em all in a vile

fill it up to here

toss 'em all into the persian gulf

forget about it

man

just write it off. as a high price of love

as a high price of love

as a high price of love

as a high price of love.
