You Don't Count The Cost

Billy Dean

It happens to a mother

She is giving birth

Her heart is filled with joy

While her body's filled with hurt

She holds the baby close to her

Despite the pain he 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 sacrifice

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 giving all they got

For someone else's sake

If you ever doubt it

Just think about the cross

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



You don't count the heartache

You don't count the sacrifice

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

No
