What It Costs

[Verse 1] Sunlight fading fast, make it last Like a flame flickers, then it's past Moonlight fades to dark, carry on You never know what's real until it's gone [Pre-Chorus 1] But love deals the currency of loss Don't ever forget what it cost [Chorus] Hold on to me, carry me through Our story needs the pain that we outgrew Yeah, you can't call it love until you've lost If you love someone this is what it cost [Verse 2] This city cries softly tonight Like a million teardrops from a thousand eyes I'm drenched beneath the rainy Melbourne skies Wonder how it is I feel so dry inside [Pre-Chorus 2] But love uses the pain to drill the holes That irrigate our dry and thirsty souls [Chorus] Ohhh Ohhh Ohhh [Outro] Sunlight fading fast, make it last Sunlight fading fast, make it last
