Lyric The Heart That You Own

The Heart That You Own

(Dwight Yoakam)

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 the rent
Pay it right on time
Baby I pay you every single dime
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 the I cry
Cause 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 struggle each night to find a new way
To pay you 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 go now

Cause 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.

Extra

Yea, in my heart
The heart that you own
