Cost of Living

One, two, three

How could you rob me blind

When I thought I was a navigator?

I thought I could read the signs

You were sending up flares

Red and gold everywhere

I remember my hand

Thinking I had a chance

Reaching out for a dance

In the fiery air

Now I can't afford

The cost of this living

Your love was a luxury you took from me

This poverty has made me so broken

And I can't afford the cost of living

If you don't pay me no attention

I don't know what grows

From these tears that hit the ground

No shoulder to cry on

No comfort in the sound

And I can't afford

The cost of this living

Your love was a luxury you took from me

This poverty has made me so broken

And the debt of this loss

Too heavy to mention

Now I can't afford the cost of living

If you don't pay me no attention

Now I can't afford

The cost of this living

Your love was a luxury you took from me

This poverty has made me so broken

And the debt of this loss

Too heavy to mention

Now I can't afford the cost of living

If you don't pay me no attention
