the price i pay
My friend said she could see no way ahead And I was probably better off without you She said to face up to the fact that you weren't coming back And she could make me happy like you used to But I'm sorry to say I turned her away Knowing everything she said was true And that's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do  There's something inside that hurts my foolish pride To visit the places we used to go together Not a day goes by that I don't sit and wonder why Your feelings for me didn't last forever Girl I love you so much that sometimes it's such I'd walk a mile with a stone in my shoe And that's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do That's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do  So keep that phone out of my way for the things I must say Are empty if you don't believe they're true And that's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do That's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do  I love you so much that baby it's such I'd walk a mile with a stone in my shoe And that's the price I pay for loving you the way that I do
