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 every minute that you're 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

These hard times ain't hard to forget

Now I believe in love at first sight



I'm putting my heart and soul on the line

I 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
