Lyrics
DEVIL OF A PRICE
Verse 1
Come take a wander with me, Let’s look down to the sea
Above where the eagles fly, I lose my heart in your smile
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Verse 2
The toll of progress in a bitter sky, Corrupted air leaves tears in our eyes
We can’t always get our way, At least that’s what they use to say
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Chorus
Overall it may be said, I can be too sensitive
If it's the way it’ll always stay
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Verse 3
Lincoln watched as they took a stand, Heard a dream with a different plan
Peaceful protest turned to bitter rage
But plotted bullets can’t stop this train
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Chorus
Overall it may be said, I can be too sensitive
If it's the way it’ll always stay
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Bridge
Hearts beating everywhere I go, I can feel the sense of urgency,
Pictures cannot tell us lies, We can no longer wait for someday
Verse 4
Come take a wander with me, There’s still so much to see
Could be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
Chorus
Overall it may be said, I can be too sensitive
If it's the way it’ll always stay
There’ll be a devil of a price to pay, ooh, someday
