The Price

A touch on the shoulder
Wow, you look older
I've missed out on your adult life
But the fault wasn't mine right?
The fault wasn't mine, right

Pretend I didn't notice
You right when you walked in
The ball is in your court
And you chose to say hi
And I don't mind
Really, I don't mind

But all at once, I'm met with my past
It's like I'm looking at the bottom of a looking glass
All at once, I realize
It's not a crime to love somebody
And let it die
If it needs to die

Just for a moment
I'm a child of our divorce
I'm both parents and the kid in the middle of the storm
I still stick up for both sides
But the fault wasn't mine right?
The fault wasn't mine, right

All at once, I'm met with my past
It's like I'm looking at the bottom of a looking glass
All at once, I realize
It's not a crime to love somebody
And let it die
If it needs to die

I can see the shame in your eyes
After all of the push and pull
I'm still tethered to your line and
I've got a husband
You've got a wife
And the fault wasn't mine, right?
The fault wasn't mine

All at once, I'm met with my past
It's like I'm looking at the bottom of a looking glass
All at once, I realize
It's not a crime to love somebody
And let it die
(If it needs to die)
If loving you was a crime
I'm still paying the price
