Phoebe Silva - Everything Comes With a Price

An elderly man in a turban
Stared right through my very soul
Foretold of my future
And saw through my past
Told me good fortune would be mine
At last
"There's two men that love you
But only one who
Captures your fancy" said he
I nodded my head and he smiled and said
"Now will you please pay my fee?
See the Magic was free
But we've got mouths to feed
And wise is worth far more than nice
And everything comes with a price"

My heart opened wide as the ocean
After my last great despair
The music I played was my lighthouse
It drew you to me and you made a home there
I had room for a while in the warmth of my smile
And the softness that cradled your head
But the weather turned blue
And the ocean ran dry
And you made a cage of my bed
See the Magic was free
But then you got greedy
And wise is worth far more than nice
And everything comes with a price

I've wandered the plains and the deserts
I've wondered out loud at the sky
"If loves truly free
Than what's draining me?"
The answer it came from inside
We think that we're owed something special
We put faith in the stories of old
But the game's an illusion
And love is the truth
And truth can't be something we're sold
See the Magic's in loving
And loving is free
But try to possess it
And it always flees
You couldn't bribe me
So you tried to buy me
And since you can't love me
You'll get no more of me
And wise is worth far more than nice
And everything comes with a
Everything comes with a price
