Spare Change


Print songSend correction to the songSend new songfacebooktwitterwhatsapp


Aching, longing
Save all your hands for me
'Cause I won't share them
With anything, anyone else

I grew from you
Branches from a dying tree
But I could save you
If only you looked for me

You can break me
I'm a piggy bank on the floor
Watch all my spare change
Roll out the door
Watch all my spare change
Roll across the floor
Watching me through
Your glass door

Save your smile for
Everybody else you see
'Cause I don't want the
One that you make for me

You can break me
I'm a piggy bank on the floor
Watch all my spare change
Roll out the door
Watch all my spare change
Roll across the floor
Watching me through
Your glass door
Your door

The more that I tried
The more that you pried
Yourself away
