[Verse 1]
She's been away a day or two by now
I don't think that I miss her anyhow
Times change, I don't feel the same
'Cause she's been away
A hundred fifty thousand seconds late
I was I should have asked her to wait
Torn apart as another night starts
What do I do now?

[Chorus]
Got a nickel, got a nickel for a candy bar across the street
Strangely sweet
Got a dime, got a dime, call my girlfriend up on the line
Strangely fine

[Verse 2]
She's been away a day or two by now
I don't think that I miss her anyhow
Reasons change, for who was to blame?
Just a point of view
She's been away
What can I say but
She's been away
