Five and Dime Lyrics
Five and Dime - Joshua Radin
Everyone in this town is saying the same thing
Wait 'til tomorrow see what that brings
The moon rises brings surprises to this small town
Johnny waits in line for the number nine
Talks aloud remembering simpler times
When a girl was on his arm
And the world was full of charm
And the sun coming up meant a better day
He says take me back
To a time I knew before
Before I opened my eyes
And knew I wanted more
Anny waits in line at the five and dime
The men stare she says she doesn't mind
There's seven mouths to feed
And she wears it on her sleeve
And she remembers the day
She said she was gonna leave
She says take me back
To a time I knew before
Before I opened my eyes
And knew I wanted more
Ooh it's tough to follow
Time's not easy to swallow
And we all long for yesterday
We said take us back
To a time we knew before
Before we opened our eyes
And knew we wanted more
