Late Night Diner

There's a late night diner on the south side of town

That pretty girls on Friday should never hang around

But the lady two seats over is sitting there crying all alone

If she's here at this hour it must be hell on her at home

I'm not trying to know your business

I'm not trying to change your life

It costs a lot to love somebody

And I know because I had to pay the price

I finished up my coffee and put my dollar down to leave

If I was a few years younger, she'd be coming home with me

But that'd be the bad decision that I made one too many times

You know we might be forgiven; I'm just not good company tonight

I'm not trying to know your business

I'm not trying to change your life

It costs a lot to love somebody

And I know because I had to pay the price

It costs a lot to love somebody

And I know because I had to pay the price
