You Don't Count the Cost

(Chris Waters - Tom Shapiro - Bucky Jones)



It happens to a mother when she is giving birth

Her heart is filled with joy while her body is filled with hurt

She holds the baby to her breast despite the pain it caused

When it comes to love you don't count the cost.



It happens to a soldier fighting for his home

Fear wells up inside him and yet he still goes on

Even though he knows he may be the next to fall

When it comes to love you don't count the cost.



You don't count the heartache, you don't count the sacrafice

All that counts is what you feel inside

It doesn't really matter what is gained or what is lost

When it comes to love you don't count the cost.



It happens all around us each and every day

Someone's givin all they got for someone elses sake

If you've ever doubted just think about the cross

'Cause when it comes to love, oh, you don't count the cost.



You don't count the hearteache, you don't count the sacrafice

All that counts is what you feel inside

It doesn't really matter what is gained or what is lost

When it comes to love you don't count the cost.



When it comes to love you don't count the cost...
