No Matter the Price

It was a cold, clear day in January
When a handsome young man said, Will you marry
Me? He got down on one knee
She broke into a smile, ear to ear, tears streaming
It's like all her dreams were coming true

She had a lot of big plans, yeah, oh so many
Wanted to sing for the world, play for each and every
So they moved to Tennessee
Bought a little house on a lake near the big city
It's like all her dreams were coming true

Every night he'd
Whisper to her
Darling, I love you

And I will stay here with you, forever and ever
Just me and you, you know I would never
Give up on you, I'm staying for life
No matter the price

She started writing lots of songs, he was right beside her
Work their nine-to-five jobs, spend their nights inspired
Trying to make it in the industry
It takes a lot of time but they both agree
That it's all worthwhile to make her dreams come true

But then illness struck hard, he was close to dying
Needed care around the clock, no more time for writing
Leave the fans and the new CD
She had to ditch her dream just so he could breathe
And watch it all slip by, what's she going to do? She says

Even though my
Heart is breaking
You know I still love you

And I will stay here with you, forever and ever
Just me and you, you know I would never
Give up on you, I'm staying for life
No matter the price

Well you know there's
No greater love than
Laying down your life
For another
Even though she
Gave up everything
What she got was better still
It's better still
Oh

Years went by, and
She stuck by him
Holding hands, they
Made it through everything
Now each night, in
Every season
They sing to each other

And I will stay here with you, forever and ever
Just me and you, you know I would never
Give up on you, I'm staying for life
No matter the price

And I will stay here with you, forever and ever
Just me and you, you know I would never
Give up on you, I'm staying for life
No matter the price
No matter the price
