Lyrics
The Price
I?ve never seen a star like this
I cannot turn away for fear of missing this show of light
Across this heavenly sky
I?ve never seen a night like this
Magnetic showers light to kiss my open eyes
And I cannot believe what I?m seeing (feeling)
Is this view worth the sacrifice (I?ve made)
I?ll probably never see my home (kids) again
I am, alone here and although the view is.. Glorious
Can I justify the price I?ve paid?
Sunset here goes on and on
Hues interchange way out beyond
Horizon lines. There is no time
Its everything I hoped to see
Since Neil Armstrong held me on his knee
And told me how they touched the face of God
Is this view worth the sacrifice
I?ll probably never see the earth again
As I, move past, this rising emerald river
Tears of, joy and pain, fall upon my graying chin
I can, barely, contain my raw excitement
Am I really here?
As I, move through your universe the view is.. Glorious
But can I justify the price you paid
Does it justify the price you paid
