costly, isn't it.
what?
everything.
the most beautiful things in life, aren't they free?
those are the most costly.

Every night, I fall asleep to a tired singing voice
I drift away to the sound of my love breaking through the static
I fall asleep with my head turned slightly up
because I'd hate to drown in my tear puddle
on my pillow.

The most beautiful things in life, they're not free.
They take the most tears, the most worry, and the most love.
Whoever told you they were free did not know what they were saying.

You just have to decide if, in the end when you own what you made payments on, is worth it's price.
You have to decide if it can be a price that was beautifully paid.

Mine is.
