Paroles de Nickel Dreams

A little girl's dream world with ribbons and long curls Reflections of yesterday's past Now headlines and foot lights The hours of long nights keep everything Moving so fast It's taken a long time And she's walked a thin line The fame and fortune arrived She kept on striving Way of surviving Till part of those dreams came alive Chorus: And she wishes she looks like They tell her she looks like all the time What she'd give just to feel like She tells them she's feeling Just fine All that money she makes every night Ain't as much as it seems A dollar a wrinkle and less then a nickel a dream Her heart may be breaking But she keeps on taking What she thought she wanted way back when It's too late to change her There's always a stranger To tell her she's someone again Repeat Chorus Nickel a dream Nickel dreams
