Thick as Thieves

We stole everything that we could see
We'd stick together for all time
Rode away, rode away
Walked away, walked away
We stole the love from young girls in ivory towers
We stole, the friendship that bound us together

But something came along that changes our minds
We stole everything that we could see

We stole the silent wind that says you are free
We're not as thick as we used to be
Thick as thieves us
We were so close
Thick as thieves us

And we meant it but it turns out just for awhile
We stole autumn leaves and summer showers
And nothing came between us
Now we're no longer as thick as thieves
Like a perfect stranger
We stole the burning sun in the open sky
Then like the perfect Lone Ranger

We didn't have to spoil anything
And the world, no personal situations
We stole anything that we couldn't keep

We're no longer as thick as thieves, no

But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time

You came into my life,
We stole from the schools and their libraries
But it wasn't enough
You rode away, rode away
No, we're no longer as thick as thieves, no
You walked away, walked away
Then like a perfect stranger
And it was enough

We stole from the drink that made us sick

While we watched our ideals helplessly unwind
I don't know what and I don't know why
We'd stick together for all time

And we've gone and spoiled everything
And now we've gone and spoiled everything
And always be as thick as thieves

We're not as thick as we used to be, no
We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep
You came into my life
No it wasn't enough
We stole the green belt fields that made us believe
And we meant it but it turns out just for a while
We stole the twinkling stars in the black night
We stole the friendship that bound us together
