Back When Lyrics by Vern Gosdin

Nickels and Dimes and Love

0

Lately it seems like we don’t give much thought
As to what matters and what matters not
We cut each other we don’t cut no slack
We don’t give in and we don’t take it back
We stop to love each other now and then
That ain’t the way it used to be back when

Back when these cloudy heart were sunny skies
And there were stars not teardrops in these eyes
We wouldn’t even let the moon get blue
Darling I swear we’ve got to get back to back when

Now we’ve not gone so far we can’t go back
We’ve only jumped a little off this track
No lovers ever loved each other more
We’ve always been the cause we’re fighting for
I’m still the fool for you I’ve always been
You’re still the girl that hung the moon back then

Back when these cloudy heart were sunny skies
And there were stars not teardrops in these eyes
We wouldn’t even let the moon get blue
Darling I swear we’ve got to get back to back when

Way back in my memories
I seem to recall that we were meant to be

Back when these cloudy heart were sunny skies
And there were stars not teardrops in these eyes
We wouldn’t even let the moon get blue
Darling I swear we’ve got to get back to back when

Oh get back to back when
