What It Costs

In the instant, in the turn of your eye

That you suddenly realize, you don't have time

To see things through, dear to you, and they fall right where they lay

With no one beside you, but yourself to blame

What makes no difference will know no pain

And the sum of pleasure will hurt you the same

When it's everything you're leaving for everything that you want

You lose what you have, and that's what it costs

You lose what you have, and that's what it costs

A sum of glory for a sum of loss

And what can you do with the same old blues, but go out and lose them again
