Wish I Had A Dime by Michael Callen Lyrics

Wish I had a dime
For the dreams I left behind
Now you’re probably thinking
That I just don’t care
Well, I’m still a dreamer
But now dreams don’t catch me unaware
And I still have dreams to share

Wish I had a dime
For the plans I left behind
By now I’d probably be a
Self-made millionaire
Thought I had the future
Sewn up like a balloon on a string
But balloons don’t mean a thing

Don’t wait
For the silver lining
Don’t wait for the pot of gold
Every day will bring a treasure
Another story waiting to unfold
Wish I had a dime
For the tears I left behind
Every time I cried I thought
It’s too much pain
But looking back it seems
That the tears were just like rain
And we’d cry them just to cry
Again and again and again

Wish I had a dime
For alll these questions in my mind
Though I think I find some answers every day
But just when I think that I’m the wiser
That’s when life
Comes sneakin’ up behind
And leaves me here the fool each time

Don’t wait for the silver lining
Don’t wait for the pot of gold
Every day will be a treasure
Another story waiting to unfold

Wish I had a dime
