The Price I Pay


 (Chris Hillman/Bill Wilds)

 They tell me I'm the talk of the town 
 I've been staying home alone every night 
 It's nobody's business where I'm bound 
 As if to be alone and lonely just ain't right 

 On a old freight train moving down the line 
 I'm counting each day and every minute that your away 
 I've never been the stay at home kind 
 But for you it's just the price that I pay 

 It's just the price I pay for loving you 
 The price I pay for needing you so much 
 The price I pay for needing you 
 And putting all this time between us 

 I knew I was in trouble when we met 
 Dark clouds all around me I couldn't find the light 
 The hard time ain't hard to forget 
 I believe in love at first sight 

 I put my heart and soul on the line 
 And know your love is with me every day 
 Your picture always there on my mind 
 But for you it's just the price that I pay 

 It's just the price I pay for loving you 
 The price I pay for needing you so much 
 The price I pay for needing you 
 And putting all this time between us
