Pay No Rent

I hear the clickin' of the dominoes, you're shakin' up a game
And if we lose a hand, I bet I'll know just who's to blame
But if we hit 21, if we make that call
I bet I'll sit here in my chair just feelin' ten-feet-tall

And we're caught up in the riffraff, circlin' 'round the sun
It takes a whole lot of blood and tears just to really love someone
But when it comes back around, that's Heaven on Earth
You never know 'til the end, my friend, what your love is really worth

Are you crackin' jokes with the common folks?
Are you servin' to the will to do?
I've traveled 'round, and I ain't found nobody quite like you
And is all this livin' meant to be, or a happy accident?
Well, in my heart you pay no rent
Well, in my heart you pay no rent

I hear the crackle of a campfire, you're howlin' at the moon
We all know that you gotta go, but does it have to be so soon?
Bet somebody's yellin' "Last call", I hope you get some rest
Hope you found everything that you wanted in the place you love the best

Are you crackin' jokes with the common folks?
Are you servin' to the will to do?
Well, I've traveled 'round and I ain't found nobody quite like you
And is all this livin' meant to be, or a happy accident?
Well, in my heart you pay no rent
Well, in my heart you pay no rent

And now we're shakin' up the dominoes beneath the neon light
Knowin' anybody else out there couldn't put up a better fight
But the fightin' time's over, and it's all gone
You pick up the pieces, and we try to carry on

Are you crackin' jokes with the common folks?
Are you servin' to the will to do?
Well, I've traveled 'round and I ain't found nobody quite like you
And is all this livin' meant to be, or a happy accident?
Well, in my heart you pay no rent

Don't cost you nothing, not a single cent
Time together, well, it's time well spent
In my heart you pay no rent
In my heart you pay no rent
