pennies Lyrics

I'll probably spend my whole life

Wishing away

Throw too many pennies

Begging you to stay

But they say they lose their magic touch after a few

So I guess I'm getting good at wasting pennies on you

Fuck, I'm kinda broke now

Not gonna lie

Took all my dollars to the bank

Just so I could buy

A few thousand pennies

So I'll never run dry

Don't know why I'm doing this but baby I

Love the way you talk

The way you walk

The way you hold your own

In those arguments you always say go on inside your home

And I swear that if I could

I'd be your knight in shining armor

I would tell them to go fuck themselves

The second that they do you wrong

All you have to do is say the words

A simple, "I love you"

God I hope these pennies work

I can't afford to throw dimes too

I mean if I have to I will

That's just a lot of money

Anyways

Remember when we used to drive

Up and down the coast

When our song came on the radio

And you hit every note

That's the first time I heard you sing

I can't believe you sang to me

But then of course I fell asleep

I think you kissed me on the cheek?

Might've been daydreaming

But I think that I remember

The moment your lips hit my skin

Will stay with me forever

And I can't put into words how much I miss those days

But I guess you'd call this trying cause for you I'd do anything

Because for you I'd do anything

Become an astronaut

And find a way to go to Saturn

Not like you'd ask for that

But if it really mattered

What about the moon

Is that more your style

They already found a way to get there

But I'd travel all the miles

As long as it makes you happy

Even just for a little bit

And keep your fingers crossed

That I don't get lost in the orbit

I'd have so many pennies

Just sitting in my room

Cause if I'm not on Earth

Then how will I spend them on you

Maybe the moon has its own wishing wells

For me to throw them in

I wonder if aliens use pennies

Or is it just Earth's superstition

Either way they should still work right

As long as I believe

That I was made to throw these pennies

And that these pennies were made for me
