penny, why did you go away
i thought that you would stay forever
you said, your love for me is dead
now you've messed up my head
but i remember
you told me that i was your dream come true (oh, oh, oh)
but you woke up and now you say we're through (oh, oh, oh)
my friends are tellin me, hey man leave it be
But i'm cryin every night your not with me
penny, was it something that i said
Did i forget to make my bed
or fail you
so smart, is he why we are apart
did he run into your heart, and derail you
well i gave you all i had and so much more (oh, oh, oh)
you gave me one last kiss and closed the door (oh, oh, oh)
my friends are tellin me, hey man leave it be
but i'm crying everynight your not with me
well i took your letters and i ripped them up (oh, oh, oh)
its all my fault i acted like a chump (oh, oh, oh)
my friends are tellin me, hey man leave it be
but i'm cryin everynight your not with me
