THE PRICE WAS SO HIGH

(Written by Jeff Ridler)

Verse

YOU’VE BEEN A FAITHFUL HEARTACHE

YOU HAVEN’T LEFT FOR YEARS

WHILE I’VE BEEN DOING HARD TIME

AND RUNNING OUT OF TEARS

YOU DON’T ME ANYMORE

AND I’VE JUST ONE LAST REQUEST

I HOPE, IF YOU DON’T MIND

I DON’T LOVE YOU ANY LESS

CHORUS

THE PRICE WAS HIGH

AND DEARLY I’VE PAID

THE HIGH COST OF LOVING YOU

AND FOR THE LOVE THAT WE MADE

NOW OUR TIME’S BEEN SPENT

SO’S MY HEART AND SOUL

WHO WAS IT THAT SAID

“EASY COME EASY GO”

Verse

CUZ, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A NEW PLAN

THE WAY IT OUGHT TO BE

WHEN I CAN’T TAKE NO MORE FALLS

HIGH AS A REDWOOD TREE

NO, YOU WON’T SEE THIS BOY

A SPREADIN’ HIMSELF THIN

CUZ, I AIN’T GOT THE TIME

TO DO THE TIME AGAIN

CHORUS

CHORUS
