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