Lyrics Marina Kaye – The Price I’ve Had To Pay

Only the young and the innocent
Are born with trusting souls
Where light is drawn to nurture them
By example all they know

But I had to learn before my time
That beneath your many masks
Therein the darkness deep within
I fell victim to your past

And I have lost
And you have taken
And I have learnt
The hardest way

My heart is breaking
My world is crashing to the floor
The part you’ve taken
Is not forgiven anymore
And some would say
That’s the price I’ve had to pay

I heard you released the demon
Locked the door and hid the key
With every blow a nightmare screaming
You may as well have been killing me

And I have lost
And you have taken
I’ve had to learn
The hardest way

My heart is breaking
My world is crashing to the floor
The part you’ve taken
Is not forgiven anymore

I took it to the limit
But you were never in it to stay
Some would say
That’s the price I’ve had to pay

Forgiveness is earned
Lessons are learned
I was the weak one
But I am stronger now
So much stronger now

My heart is breaking
My world is crashing to the floor
The part you’ve taken
Is not forgiven anymore
My heart is breaking
My word is crashing to the floor
The part you’ve taken
Is not forgiven anymore

I took it to the limit
But you were never in it to stay
Some would say
That’s the price I’ve had to pay
