Have I payed enough to you?

Have I payed enough to you
Have I payed all that You ‘re due
Have I finally met your cost
Can I climb down off your cross
Tell me what else can I give
End this pain I’m living with
Tell me baby is there more I must go through?
Baby have I payed enough to you?
Verse 1
In the beginning they told me it was risky
But my stubborn pride would not let me hear
I swear my brain was swimming round in whiskey
Cause I took the chance and let my heart get near
Well at first it seemed you were what I dreamed of
Sky blue eyes, golden flowing blond hair
A figure that was just right for my arms to reach round tight
Sweet voice to whisper in my ear
Lift
But baby I found out what hell is all about
Cause when I fell I soon lost all control
To the cruel gatekeeper
Of this cell I call my soul
Chorus
Verse 2
No matter where I go I’m still in prison
My heart is chained and you got all the keys
You keep stringing me along enough to keep me hanging on
But You won’t tell me what it takes to set me free
