Nickels And Dimes

It's been a long time since your salient days
Circumstances have changed your ways
Lost in the city, we were just two kids
And no one seemed to care just what we did

You never thought we were out of time
Now watch while you count the change
What you lost for what you gained

Now all that's left
All that's left
All that's left
Are the nickels and dimes

All those nights singing on the strand
What would you give to have them back again?
We bleed our hearts out but it never paid
Somewhere down the line, you got afraid

You never thought you'd run out of time
Now watch while you count the change
What you lost for what you gained

Now all that's left
All that's left
All that's left
Are the nickels and dimes

I'm just like you
I make the same mistakes
I even break my lucky break
When the party's over
And it's over

All those nights singing on the strand
What would you give to have them back again?
Bled your heart out, but it never paid
Somewhere down the line, you got afraid

You never thought you'd run out of time
Now watch while you count your change
What you lost for what you gained

Now all that's left
All that's left
All that's left
Are the nickels and dimes

All that's left
All that's left
Watch while you count your change
All that's left
All that's left
What you lost for what you gained
All that's left
All that's left
? Just like a purse
All that's left
All that's left
? Times gone from bad to worse
'Cause all that's left...
