What It Costs - Switchfoot

Sunlight fading fast, make it last

Like a flame that flickers, then its passed

Moonlight fades to dawn, carry on

You never know what's real until it's gone

Love deals the currency of life

Don't ever forget what it costs

Hold on to me, carry me through

Our story is the pain that we outgrew

Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost

If you love someone this is what it costs

This city cries softly tonight

Like a million tear drops from a thousand eyes

I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne sky

Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside

Love uses the pain to drill the holes

That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls

Hold on to me, carry me through

Our story is the pain that we outgrew

Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost

If you love someone this is what it costs

Oh

Oh

Oh

Sunlight fading fast, make it last

Sunlight fading fast, make it last
