The High Price of Love (Remastered) - THE BAND

The Band-Shear-Szelest

I can see in the mirror that edge had a little fuzz

Her business card didn't tell me what her business was

A beautiful care package sent to a starving man

I ate all of that and I was hungry again.

I heard a sound, a knock on the door

That room was empty, she ain't live there anymore

I was standin' there, reflecting on my own

What's gonna happen to that five hundred dollar loan?

It ain't worth it cryin' these tears

Put 'em all in a vile, fill it up to here

Toss 'em all into the Persian Gulf

Forget about it, man, just write it off.

As a high price of love

As a high price of love.

There's something wrong all across the nation

Everybody, everywhere, is a victim of inflation

Someone takes advantage, thinks they won't get beat

They think they got a bargain but they're onlygot it cheap.

It ain't worth it cryin' these tears

Put 'em all in a vile, fill it up to here

Toss 'em all into the Persian Gulf

Forget about it, man, just write it off.

As a high price of love

High price of love.

'Cause iIt ain't worth it cryin' these tears

Put 'em all in a vile, fill it up to here

Toss 'em all into the Persian Gulf

Forget about it, man, just write it off.

As a high price of love

As a high price of love

As a high price of love

As a high price of love.
