A slow soul ballad with jazz influence, which was originally released in a shorter version (3:57) on the album “Philadelphia Freedom” (1992).
[Verse 1]
I need a bromide
To sleep away of memories
'Cause I try, try, try
But there's no way together
What can I tell my heart?
My whole life is torn apart
You paid me back
With my own coins
[Verse 2]
All day long, I wait for your coins
And I think alone all night
I wait for hurt to leave
My heart is dying
And only you can save it
You paid me back
Oh, you paid me back
With my own coins
[Solo]
[Verse 3]
Gimme back the hope
That I once got from you
Gimme back the hand
That always helped me through
If I can have just one more chance
I know I could make it with you
'Cause now you paid me back
Yes, you have
With my own, with my own coins
[Verse 4]
You paid me back
Oh yes, you have
But I still want you back
Gimme a chancе
Just gimme your hand
Save my heart
Gimmе a start
[Verse 5]
I wait for your coins
Are you lucky?
Make this hurt
Believe me
[Verse 6]
'Cause you paid me back, yeah
You paid me back
You paid me back
With my own coins
You paid me back
Save my heart
Oh, back
Oh, I want you back
Gimme a chance
Save your heart and go back
