| Times were so tough, but not as tough as they are now, | |
| We were so close and nothing came between us - and the world - | |
| No personal situations. | |
| Thick as thieves us, we'd stick together for all time, | |
| And we meant it but it turns out just for a while, | |
| We stole - the friendship that bound us together - | |
| We stole from the schools and their libraries, | |
| We stole from the drugs that sent us to sleep, | |
| We stole from the drink that made us sick, | |
| We stole anything that we couldn't keep, | |
| And it was enough - we didn't have to spoil anything, | |
| And always be as thick as thieves. | |
| Like a perfect stranger - you came into my life, | |
| Then like the perfect lone ranger - you rode away - rode away, | |
| Rode away - rode away. | |
| We stole the love from young girls in ivory towers, | |
| We stole autumn leaves and summer showers, | |
| We stole the silent wind that says you are free, | |
| We stole everything that we could see, | |
| But it wasn't enough - and now we've gone and spoiled everthing, | |
| Now we're no longer as thick as thieves. | |
| You came into my life - | |
| Then like a perfect stranger you walked away - walked away - | |
| Walked away - walked away. | |
| Thick as thieves us - we'd stick together for all time, | |
| And we meant it but it turns out just for awhile, | |
| We stole the friendship that bound us together. | |
| We stole the burning sun in the open sky, | |
| We stole the twinkling stars in the black night, | |
| We stole the green belt fields that made us believe, | |
| We stole everything that we could see. | |
| But something came along that changes our minds, | |
| I don't know what and i don't know why, | |
| But we seemed to grow up in a flash of time, | |
| While we watched our ideals helplessly unwind. | |
| No - we're no longer as thick as thieves - no, | |
| We're not as thick as we used to be - no, | |
| We're no longer as thick as thieves - no, | |
| We're not as thick as we used to be - | |
| No it wasn't enough - and we've gone and spoiled everything | |
| Now we're no longer as thick as thieves. |
