Nickel Dreams Lyrics - Reba Mcentire

(mac mcnally, donny lowery) 

A little girl's dream world with ribbons and long curls 

Reflections of yesterday's past 

Now headlines and foot lights 

The hours of long nights keep everything 

Moving so fast 

It's taken a long time 

And she's walked a thin line 

The fame and fortune arrived

She kept on striving 

Way of surviving 

Till part of those dreams came alive 

Chorus: 

And she wishes she looks like 

They tell her she looks like all the time 

What she'd give just to feel like 

She tells them she's feeling 

Just fine 

All that money she makes every night 

Ain't as much as it seems 

A dollar a wrinkle and less then a nickel a dream 

Photos 

Her heart may be breaking 

But she keeps on taking 

What she thought she wanted way back when 

It's too late to change her 

There's always a stranger 

To tell her she's someone again 

Repeat chorus 

Nickel a dream 

Nickel dreams
