Call It A Loan Lyrics - Browne Jackson

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 

Oh-- 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 

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-- there seem to be two 

One steals the love and the other one hides 

Yeah-- can we call it a loan 

Till I'm 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
