What It Costs

     Em          C              G
Sunlight fading fast, make it last.
         D           C                  Em
Like a flame that flickers, then its passed.
    Em              C        G
Moonlight fades to dawn, carry on.
      D                 C              G
You never know what's real until it's gone.
 D                C         G
Love deals the currency of life.
 D              C           G
Don't ever forget what it costs.
 Em          C     G        D
Hold on to me, carry me through.

Our story is the pain that we outgrew.
       Em                 C                 G        D
Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost.

If you love someone this is what it costs.
      Em         C          G
This city cries softly at night.
         D                 C               Em
Like a million tear drops from a thousand eyes.
     Em                    C              G
I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne sky.
        D           C            Em
Wonder why it is I feel so dry inside.
 D             C                G          D            C         G
Love uses the pain to drill a hole, and irrigate our dried up, thirsty souls.
      Em     C   G         D
Hold on to me, carry me through.
