Jewelry Store Songtext
von Eddie Rabbitt

Funny, how the years can just slip us
We swore to keep in touch
We were lovers, we were friends
And we said, we′d never let
No distance come between us

And the seeds of dreams we planted
Will we keep them till the end of forever

But you've givin′ up your music
For a jewelry store
I'm workin' in a bar outside of Baltimore
Neither of us found what we were lookin′ for
How we tried to catch tomorrow
Today just slipped away


We said we′d never let the world take us
And put us in some place
Where we didn't want to be
And we swore we′d never fade
That couldn't make us

′Cause together we had strength
With our youth, we held the key
That could free us

But you've givin′ up your music
For a jewelry store
I'm workin' in a bar outside Baltimore
Neither of us found what we were lookin′ for
How we tried to catch tomorrow
Today just slipped away

Yes, you′ve given up your music
For a jewelry store
You never play your old piano anymore
I think of you so much when I sweep up the floor
And the hopes we shared together
And the lives we never lived
The lives we never lived
