Lyrics:
What ever happened to
Those star-eyed plans, that we used to make?
Seems like that well’s been, runnin’ dry
Throw your nickels in, but it feels far too late.
Remember how we used to dream
About lives we didn’t even know yet
But the years keep moving on, they won’t let up
Feels like the only thing that matters now is stacking them nickels up
Trading our dreams for money
Trading our love for time
Buy it all back at the end of the line
We all say life got in the way
Make another dollar, for another day
But no-one knew the price we’d pay
Those naive days have all gone away
Spent all those years just counting change
No matter how you stack it, just won’t make no change
But the years keep moving on, they won’t let up
Feels like the only thing that matters now is stacking them nickels up
Trading our dreams for money
Trading our love for time
Buy it all back at the end of the line
Too many days, gone and past
What we’ve done, is all that will last
Can’t stand to sit another day-to find
That that face in the coffin is mine
Now thinking back, what would he say
If that kid, could see me today?
He’d say
The years kept moving on, they don’t let up
Don’t let the only thing that matters, be stacking them nickels up
Giving our cash for time
Giving our time for love
Give it all back before the end of the line
