What Price the Heart
Dave Oakes
No matter how far away you are
Your heart is never more than a beat away
Whenever your feet get that traveling urge
Remember that you always have a place to stay.
You are never away from home for even a moment
Because your home is right here in my heart
You could never have questioned my saying this
You have known it right from the start.
Sight unseen the price could have been high
But, the good were all you had ever hoped they would be
Your dreams, your desires, fears, and fantasies
All came to you from the blindness for you to see.
What price did you put on that very precious heart
Did it fetch you all that you wanted in return
The cost was as high and even at that not enough
For how much does it cost for love to forever burn.
