Oh, the price of pride is high Yes, it takes a heavy toll The life that fame and fortune buys Is paid for with your soul I started out with just one dream To stand in that spotlight alone And those dear friends who helped me Now they sing Walked on like so many stepping stones Oh, the price of pride is high Yes, it takes a heavy toll The life that fame and fortune buys Is paid for with your soul The more I made, the more I believed That I was more deserving than the rest But the heart of a rich man is easily deceived Money, it can't buy happiness Oh, the price of pride is high Yes, it takes a heavy toll The life that fame and fortune buys Is paid for with your soul The life that fame and fortune buys Is paid for with your soul *
