Pawned Love

Track 2

I hear your voice
echo through my sleepless nights
Lying awake, are you ok?
Do you even think of us
and what we left behind?
Or ever wish we could try ‘us’ one more time?
Since you left me,
I haven’t searched again
For love, for warmth, affection,
not even a trusted friend
Looks like a bitter wind
swept up my hopes and dreams
Carried them so far away
nothing was as it seemed

You took my love and pawned it at a pawn shop
Sold it for your happiness and left me all alone
I can’t go there to try and get my love back
It’s not for sale, I thought you would have known

I hear your voice
echo through the hallways
Reminding me of what we left behind
A love so real,
our true happiness
Yet we’ve built walls now
that can’t be torn down
I’ve crossed paths with love
then lost it on the trail
Travelling on these dusty roads,
love’s not for sale
Since I’ve lost you,
things haven’t been the same
There’s no going back
when there’s nothing to be gained.

You took my love and pawned it at a pawn shop
Sold it for your happiness and left me all alone
I can’t go there to try and get my love back
It’s not for sale, I thought you would have known

You took my love and pawned it at a pawn shop
Sold it for your happiness and left me all alone
I can’t go there to try and get my love back
It’s not for sale, I thought you would have known

You took my love and pawned it at a pawn shop
Sold it for your happiness and left me all alone
I can’t go there to try and get my love back
It’s not for sale, I thought you would have known

You took my love and pawned it at a pawn shop
Sold it for your happiness and left me all alone
I can’t go there to try and get my love back
It’s not for sale, I thought you would have known

To all the deadbeat lovers and heartbreakers,
Izanah says, “Long live love, JAH
LIFE!”
