I pay rent on a run down place
There ain't no view but there's lots of space
In my heart, the heart that you own
I pay rent, pay it right on time
Baby I pay yoq every single dime
E Bw E E'
For my heArt, the heart that you own
Used to be I could love here for free
Way back before you bought the property
Now I pay daily on what once was mine
Lord, I probably owe you for the tears that I cry
Cause I pay rent on a run down place
There ain't no room but there's lots of space
In my heart, the heart that you own
I struggle each night to find a new way
To pay what I owe, just so I can stay
I ain't overdue, so you can't throw me out
I've loved here for years, don't know where I'd do now
There ain't no view but there's lots of space
In my heart, the heart that you own
I pay rent, pay it right on time
Baby I pay yoq every single dime
E Bw E E'
For my heArt, the heart that you own
Used to be I could love here for free
Way back before you bought the property
Now I pay daily on what once was mine
Lord, I probably owe you for the tears that I cry
Cause I pay rent on a run down place
There ain't no room but there's lots of space
In my heart, the heart that you own
I struggle each night to find a new way
To pay what I owe, just so I can stay
I ain't overdue, so you can't throw me out
I've loved here for years, don't know where I'd do now
