 Too many people need  me
 I've got  so much,  so much  to do
 But when  my traveling  is over
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 It seems  unfair  to leave  you
 And sell  myself  the way  I do
 But when  my wandering  is over
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 Most of  my life  I've been moving
 And when  I tire out  I'll come home  to you
 But until then  I'll be waiting
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
How  cold is  my room (how cold is my room)
 Without  your love beside me?
We  look at the same  old moon (looking at the moon)
 But you're  not here beside me
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 4x
 Too many people need  me
 I've got  so much,  so much  to do
 But when  my traveling  is over
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 I'll pay  you back  with interest
 3x
