CALL IT A LOAN  - Jackson Browne


    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, 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 someway 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
