Lyrics:

If you’ve got the time, I’ve got a story to tell,
Of how I lost my money in a wishing well.
And I know it’s all just a distant memory,
But I hope that you’ll remember me.
 
I wanted out through the hard times,
Felt every doubt more than one time. 
And I’ll sit it out, watch the world pass from the sidelines,
Hoping I’m not just a punchline in a joke I didn’t get.
 
But I would never let it go down that way.
'Cause at the end of the day.
 
If you’ve got the time, I’ve got a story to tell,
Of how I lost my money in a wishing well.
And I know it’s all just a distant memory,
But I hope that you’ll remember me.
Summertime brought a falling feeling,
Loose change spent on hopeless dreaming,
I know it’s a distant memory,
But I hope that you’ll remember me.
 
I’ve broken down ten miles away,
I’ve seen the sun, I’ve burnt my face.
It’s not that clever.
I'm throwing coins into the blue,
Wishful thinking coming true,
So look around take in the view, 
It’s getting better. 
 
Because I never let it go down that way,
And at the end of the day.
 
I wanted out, ‘cause I saw disaster,
I watched it break when it bent.
I wanted out, ‘cause I saw disaster,
I watched it break when it bent
It’s all a means to an end. 
 
Summertime brought a falling feeling,
But I hope that you’ll remember me.
