"The Price Of A Thin Silver Dime" lyrics - JOHN ANDERSON

Well, I've been gone away for so long
And I let our love slip her mind
When I could have bought paper for a hundred love letters
For the price of a thin silver dime

It seems so small, almost like nothin' at all
But it had it's moment in time
I let her slip away, I could have called her today
For the price of a thin silver dime

If I could stop this whole world from turning
If I could just go back in time
I'd let her know my love was still burning
And once more I'd try to make her mine

If I had a million, I'd spend it all
To buy back her love one more time
But it hurts me to know I let her go
For the price of a thin silver dime

If I could stop this whole world from turning
If I could just go back in time
I'd let her know my love was still burning
And once more I'd try to make her mine

If I had a million, I'd spend it all
To buy back her love one more time
But it hurts me to know I let her go
For the price of a thin silver dime

Yes, it hurts me to know I let her go
For pride and a thin silver dime
