In the morning when I closed my eyes
You were sleeping in paradise
And while the room was growing light
I was holding still with all my might
Oh - what if it's true
What my heart says
Oh - what'll I do
What if this feeling becomes hard to part with
You were meant to play your part
In the design of a desperate heart
And while you gave your love to me
I was betting I was getting it free
Oh - if I'd only known
What your heart cost
On - can we call it a loan?
And a debt that I owe,
On a bet that I lost
In the evening when you see my eyes
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]Looking back at you, no disguise
I'm not sure who you think you'll see
I'm just hoping you'll still know that it's me
Oh - what if it's true
Better ask the man inside
Oh, oh - there seem to be two
One steals the love, and the other one hides
Yeah - can we call it a loan?
'Till fm paid in full for the seeds I've sown
Yeah - can we say that I've grown?
In some way that we may have yet to be shown
Oh - if I'd only known
What your heart cost
Oh - can we call it a loan?
And a debt that I owe,
On a bet that I lost
