Why are nickels bigger than dimes, I can't stop pondering
I've begun this letter a thousand times, my mind keeps wandering
I should say it was great to see you
I'm so glad you had a wonderful time
You made home seem very near but darling I
Don't think you should come back here and okay here's why
It's not your fault, you just remind me
Of the life I'm trying to forget
Until I put it all behind
I'm asking, no I'm pleading will you let
Me go somewhere I've not been
I bet you know exactly what I mean
Because you said yourself it's like we're walking off on two completely different paths
Why are nickels bigger than dimes
Why are nickels bigger than dimes
