What It Costs

Sunlight fading fast, make it last Like a flame flickers, then it's past Moonlight fades to dark, carry on You never know what's real until it's gone

But love deals the currency of loss Don't ever forget what it cost

Hold on to me, carry me through Our story needs the pain that we outgrew Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost If you love someone this is what it cost

This city cries softly tonight Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne skies Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside

But love uses the pain to drill the holes That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls

Hold on to me, carry me through Our story needs the pain that we outgrew Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost If you love someone this is what it cost

Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh

Sunlight fading fast, make it last Sunlight fading fast, make it last
