Lyrics
COUNT THE COST
So you count the cost of everything that you've done.
Calculate the price of everything left to come.
But wasted chances haunt my thoughts
Times' overdraft ,the opportunity cost.
Confidence please don't leave me now
Cometh the man when cometh the hour
I can't seize the day if I won't try to seize the hour.
And you self justify, and qualify each fading chance
Blame and sincerity
They're partners in this hopeless dance
But unused gifts and squandered means
They foster guilt and they husband needs
Consequence please don't freak me out
The terror of failure can murder the means
Let confidence win and bury the fear and the doubt.
