lyrics

I've never seen anybody run so fast
Like wherever you were going you were never coming back
But I was too afraid to ask
Now I'm feeling hopeless
Cause I'll never know and

We're as frozen as an icy pond
I don't know if I can wait until the summer thaw
Even though it won't be long
Till it's not as cold
I don't know if I can hold on

You're as charming as you want to be
There's no limit to the things you could get out of me
I would do it happily
If you told me wait up
I would gladly stay

Copper pennies and silver dimes
I'd pay anything to know if you were mine
The only thing you want is time
And if I can afford it
I will give you more of mine

You're as fickle as a house cat too
Never knowing what you want or what you want to do
Now my mind is changing too
But when I try to see straight
still all I can see is you

Copper pennies and silver dimes
I'd pay anything to know if you were mine
The only thing you want is time
And if I can afford it
I will give you more of mine
