It’s simpler to keep
My feelings inside
Yet at times it just seems
I’ll break down and cry

And knowing the truth
Ain’t always so great
Is there such a thing
As unwanted fate?

I’m trying too hard
To always be strong
I want to shout out
And say I want some

Sweet love
Needing it badly today
Yeah I messed it up before
How long must I pay?

The price
Seems so high
I’ll never get back
What I thought was truly mine
In fact I never had
But that’s alright I’m
I’m still movin’ on

I’m plodding through days and
Charting my moods
I’m praying my plight
Will somehow improve

My timing’s just off, but
I can fix it myself!
Yet I’m hoping for help
From somebody else

I’m trying too hard
To always be strong
I want to shout out
And say I want some

Sweet love
Needing it badly today
Yeah I messed it up before
How long must I pay?

The price
Seems so high
I’ll never get back
What I thought was truly mine
In fact I never had

I’m plodding through days and
Charting my moods
I’m praying my plight
Will somehow improve

My timing’s just off, but
I can fix it myself!
Yet I’m hoping for help
From somebody else

Things haven’t changed
And yet I may find
A willing escort
Who I can call my

Sweet love
Needing it badly today

How long must I pay?

The price

I’ll never get back
