For a heart, I bought pain, yes, for a heart, I bought pain.
My heart I sold, so cheaply, it's true.
In these times of inflated cost, in these times,
Such a bargain made, so cheap, in love's sway.
Such a bargain made, a loss so great in love's embrace,
We weep in solitude, in solitude, in solitude.
In solitude, in solitude, in solitude,
For a heart, I bought pain, yes.
Tears, sighs, a river of sorrow, now choked within my throat.
I ponder, had I not loved, how much better I'd have known.
Betrayal and disgrace, a price so steep I've paid,
Acquaintance with beauty, a price so costly laid.
Facing grief and sorrow, that was not so hard,
Facing grief and sorrow, that was not so hard,
But in love, this solitude, a price so steeply paid.
Tears, sighs, a river of sorrow, now choked within my throat.
I ponder, had I not loved, how much better I'd have known.
Now the ground itself has shifted beneath my feet,
Beneath my feet, she who betrayed in love's game,
She who betrayed in love's game.
I still watch for her, in this courtyard of my soul,
In this courtyard, in this courtyard.
For a heart, I bought pain, yes.
She played with me, as a toy, until she was done,
And then left me, driven to madness, left me undone.
From cruelty, loyalty's worth, its value never wanes,
From someone's leaving, love's fire never will restrain.
Instead of toys, now hearts are broken, that is the way,
Childhood's gone, but mischief's flame, still it burns today.
She played with me, as a toy, until she was done,
And then left me, driven to madness, left me undone.
People are like stone here, their hearts are stone as well,
Their hearts are stone, when a beautiful dream is shattered, yes,
When a beautiful dream is shattered, only then I did see,
Love is not in that betrayer, in that betrayer,
In that betrayer, in that betrayer, in that betrayer,
In that betrayer, for a heart, I bought pain, yes.
In my heart, such emptiness, the jungle seems a friend,
In the sun's desire, my friends, fireflies I must tend.
Sleep was angry with my eyes, sleeplessness did bite,
Through the night, the sequence of solitude did bite.
All the poison of sorrow, has filled my life's frame,
Thus, in love, the faithless one did bite.
In my heart, such emptiness, the jungle seems a friend,
In the sun's desire, my friends, fireflies I must tend.
In my eyes, a fair of tears, the whole night's sway,
The whole night's sway, whose beauty was golden, yes,
Whose beauty was golden,
Gave us a deep wound, we live in disgrace,
We live in disgrace, we live in disgrace, we live in disgrace.
For a heart, I bought pain.
My heart I sold, so cheaply, it's true.
In these times of inflated cost, in these times, in these times,
Such a bargain made, a loss so great in love's embrace,
We weep in solitude, in solitude,
In solitude, in solitude, in solitude.
In these times of inflated cost.
