The Price

from Solitary Nights by Marcos Cabanas

/

lyrics

Out in the back, lived a stranger who would call me night and day
His sight upon my head until I lay into my bed
And as the sun quickly faded down and into rain
Whether I was out in Switzerland or Spain, stuck in my head

And as the nights grow longer, and as the day follows the way
My heart keeps on getting stronger
That's the price I'll have to pay

And then I say, I have a feeling that I'm a conquistador
I got everything I wanted and more, oh I'm the best
But then I sit down and I let my heart speak to me and pour
For it to realize I'm just a troubadour, I'm just a guest

And as I'm held by a finger, I'm too in love to breakaway
My heart keeps on getting stronger
that's the price I'll have to pay

Well that stranger that I told you, I know his name
He's called "shattered dreams", he's called "broken heart"
The future is insane
He lives in my memories, he's part of my past
I don't wanna lose this game I'm playing that is going by so fast

And as I learn, and I accept the fate that will end up with me
God will say the words and I will come and see
It'll be the end
But until that day, I wanna have her close and hold her in my dream
She's like the paradise of where I've never been
Oh that she's mine

Until it breaks, and you realize you lost all that you had
Begging for forgiveness to her eyes, you're mad
It hangs on the line

Well I turned the daylight somber, but she keeps it from display
She looks at my eyes, says, "No longer don't you suffer or you'll pay"
I look at her, whisper "I'm sorry", I didn't mean to breakaway
And my love keeps on getting stronger,
But that's the price I'll have to pay
