The Cost

I've learned the cost of love is life and you know you can have it
I've spent the better half of mine just letting all these old habits live free
And now and then I fall again for that familiar mindset
But when it starts to fall apart I'll keep in mind you won't mind it for me

Don't feel lonely, 'cause I'm here
You can be your quiet self, and I'll be seconds near
Before the morning, all this night
Just conversations with the firelight
With the firelight

I've learned the cost of dawn is day, and you know we can sleep in
We'll spend the better half just laying in the secrets that we'll keep in your sheets
And like the breeze on open seas, I hope to find your hands feeling
On my skin and deep within both of our hearts; would you be willing with me?

Don't feel lonely, 'cause I'm here
You can be my burning star in your atmosphere
Before the morning, all this night
Just conversations with the firelight

And I can only speak for myself
But I can't help that every song was made for you
We are burning into the dark
But if it starts to fade, I'll stay awake until the night sky burns blue

So don't feel lonely, 'cause I'm here
You can be your quiet self, and I'll be seconds near
Before the morning, all this night
Just conversations with the firelight
With the firelight
