coin - regina spektor lyrics
[verse 1]
i gave a coin to a shaman
he showed me a vision so bright
i was so glad to have seen it all
but i awoke with a fright
[verse 2]
so i gave a coin to a scientist
who showed me which number i was
told me the order of things to come
but i forgot what it was
[verse 3]
so i gave a coin to a president
he sent me to fight in his war
i still don’t know who won, who lost
i still don’t know what it was for
[chorus]
just lock all the doors
and get down on the floor
they’ll be coming for more
always coming for more
[verse 4]
so i gave my next coin to a baby
he took it to put in his mouth
swallowed it whole, then started to crawl
i knew he wouldn’t remember me at all
[chorus]
when he grew up
and took a look at the world
when he grew up
and had nothing to hold
when he grew up
and saw it’s my fault
[verse 5]
so i took my last coin and i gave it to you
you smiled and said, “oh, you shouldn’t have”
but your eyes spoke louder than your mouth
your eyes said thank you, your eyes said love
[chorus]
love is enough
of a reason to stay
love is enough
of a reason to stay
love is enough
