Break Even — текст песни (Neal Casal)

hanging round the diner
just trying to break even
standing on a corner
just waiting to collect all of the moneythat you owe me
hello honey, how have you been

well, I didn`t know that you`d been lost
I couldn`t see the difference
between what you had and what you owed
you didn`t seem to care or even worry
about the distance back when it mattered
but now it doesn`t

and we won`t be going too much further
and we won`t be breaking much new ground
and we won`t be feeling that much freer
from here on out

well, I was hoping that what we had might last
if only for a while
is it good to see a long lost friend
or would you rather not go through the trouble
to fake a smile
hey, maybe next time, don`t even bother

I`ll get up to see you out
and watch you through the window
but I`ll be thinking to myselfthat nothing`s really changedmoving in circles somewhere behind me
it used to matter but now it doesn`t

and we won`t be going too much further
and we won`t be breaking much new ground
and we won`t be feeling that much freer
from here on out

from here on out ...
