Lyrics
The Price words and music by Jimbeau Walsh
Everybody's breaking up, wanting to grow
but they don't want to grow up
You want a brand new lover now
Oh how the heat of the moment
Burns the memory of a vow
Chorus
One Heart that will never mend
Sweet dreams that won't come again
Two Wings that will never fly
One heart has to pay the Price
She says the kids are fine
she let's em talk to daddy on the telephone
but he feel's so all alone
In an empty house the place
that he once called home
Chorus
One Heart that will never mend
Sweet dreams that won't come again
Two Wings that will never fly
One heart has to pay the Price
Bridge
Out on the town at night
he's wondering why
she's looking for that light
in strangers eyes
she won't find
1st Verse repeats ....
Chorus
One Heart that will never mend
Sweet dreams that won't come again
Two Wings that will never fly
One heart has to pay the Price
