The Cost Of Living
L. Kaplan/M.Shaw Count the tears that we all cry Count the cost to civilize Count the years and widowed wives Count the cost in soldiers lives It's the cost of living in a not-so-perfect world Know the loss and bittersweet Know that we all need to eat Know the price of sovereignty Know the price of human greed It's the cost of living It's the cost of living in a not-so-perfect world bridge; (well) There's no easy answer where freedom flies We hear the laughter we hear the cries We feel the pressure of compromise We taste the truth and yet we eat the lies Time will pass and wounds may heal Scars are left a soul to deal Prayer the lord your soul to keep Pray forgiveness Pray for peace It's the cost of living It's the cost of living in a not-so-perfect world |
