So many people need me I've got so much,
so much to do.
But when my travelling 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
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, without your love beside me?
We look at the same old moon, but you're not here
beside me.
I'll pay you back with interest,
I'll pay you back with interest.

So many people need me I've got so much,
so much to do.
But when my travelling is over
I'll pay you back with interest,
I'll pay you back with interest.
