High Cost Of Leaving

(albüm: Exile - 1973)

Some people say I've gone crazy
They think I'm losing my mind
I'm drinking alone at a table for two
Pouring two glasses of wine

It's just me this bottle and your memory
Ain't nobody's fault but my own
And there's no better place for a loser like me
Who's cheated away his home

It's the high cost of leaving I'm living
I've let it all slip away
I played around one time too many
Now it's the high cost of leaving
That I'll have to pay

How long must I go on hurting
How many tears does it take
And how many nights can I hold out without you
How long can a heart break

It's the high cost of leaving I'm living
I've let it all slip away
I played around one time too many
Now it's the high cost of leaving
That I'll have to pay
It's the high cost of leaving I'll pay
