Lyrics
VERSE: I spend all my time worrying about you
Hour after hour wondering where you are
Wouldn't do no good to leave I can't live without you
That's what I get caring for a careless heart
CHORUS: The high cost of loving
Has made a poor fool out of me
Getting nothing out of something
That really ain't the way it's supposed to be
I pay with lonely teardrops for all you put me through
That's the high cost of loving you
VERSE: Everyday a little more pain and sorrow
Every time you go out on the town
You were my love tonight but where will you be tomorrow
The price I pay goes up and it's wearing me down
CHORUS
Karl Williams (ASCAP) / Robert C. Welsh (ASCAP)
