I mortgaged my heart to be with you
The price was high
But you were a value
To my untrained eye

I mortgaged my soul to hear your voice
The price was dear
But you were my choice
Despite all my fear

I mortgaged my future for today
The cost was steep
Be that as it may
I was in too deep

I mortgaged my life to be the one
The mortgage came due
I stood alone
The cost was you

"Mortgage paid in full"
Deed to a damaged heart
