The Cost of Loving
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The cost of loving's on the line again
Honey, that just won't do
As we turn another blind eye
Oh, they steal it from you
But the feelings coming back
Guess it always will
And no matter how hurt you've been
Cost of lovings on the line
Honey that just won't do
Might take a little bit of time
Oh, but I've faith in me and you
The black market on the side
Oh, we take more than we need
And take it in our stride
Starving those who we feed
When the feeling starts again
Then we'll do more right than wrong
Waiting for a brighter day
Has always been too long
The cost of lovings on the line
Honey that just won't do
