Lyrics And Pocket Change
Pennies And Wishing Wells
I’ve been collecting lyrics
like lint and pocket change
Faceless scattered spirits
whispering their names
Shadows dancing
on your skin
Deep romancing
from within
Building fires
to light the way
regret, desire
sharing a flame
Ashes to ashes
and back again
Striking the matches
feeling no pain
What you’re searching for
has always been
Behind that door
you're hiding in
Nickels and dimes
cannot buy your freedom
Rhythm and rhymes
surrender where you've been
You settle for green
while chasing a dollar
But somewhere between
you don't remember what for
So toss all your pennies
In lost wishing wells
Every day’s a beginning
where you’ll go, time will tell
