VERSE



You can talk to me about powder kegs

And how I'm sitting on one right now

You can warn me about candles

and whole things burning from the outside in

But don't tell me about true love

'Cause I don't think you really know



CHORUS



You need to pay the costs

You need to feel the loss

'Cause love is expensive and free

Love is expensive and free



VERSE



Talk to me about appearances

I tell ya' lately they mean less and less

Do your best to keep me occupied

It's hard to concentrate, I must confess

Don't you tell me about heartbreak

'Cause it ain't written in the stars



CHORUS



You need to pay the costs

You need to feel the loss

'Cause love is expensive and free

Love is expensive and free

Alright, you got me



VERSE



Don't you worry 'bout my baby

Her eyes are open all the time

I could never bare to see her

Much less remove her from my mind

I didn't talk to you about true love

I didn't think you'd understand



CHORUS



You need to pay the costs

You need to feel the loss

'Cause love is expensive and free

Love is expensive and free

Love is expensive and free
