We take, we give
To share the life we live
Once two, now one
For all and all for one
But even love most true
Can take it's toll on you
One day the payment's due

And I've been told
True love's not sold
But now I know
You pay for love, you pay for love, you pay for love

First glance love starts
To fill our empty hearts
So good so strong
No way it could go wrong

But when a heart's at stake
Lover's do chances take
And easy victims make

And I've been told
True love's not sold
But now I know
You pay for love, you pay for love, you pay for love

And the price is paid in tears
Invested hours turn into years
You wonder where it went
The love that's all been spent

When part we must
We keep each other's trust
The price is paid
To keep the vows we made

For every day of fear
Each night without you near
The cost of love so dear

And I've been told
True love's not sold
But now I know
You pay for love, you pay for love, you pay for love
You pay for love, you pay for love, you pay for love
You pay for love, you pay for love, you pay for love

(Every day that you’re away, I pay for love)
(Every day that you’re away, I pay for love)
(Every day that you don’t stay, I pay for love)

I am nearly certain that I have correctly transcribed these lyrics. I listen to each song many times and write down what I hear but there are often lines that I struggle to understand. If you see a mistake and know the correct lyric, please feel free to email me. ( nowsoundsmusic97@yahoo.com)
