A - Pennies In A Jar Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Sunshine, breaking through the rain
I know I’m gonna be okay
Sometimes, it feels like this pain
Is never gonna go away
I gotta tell my heart not to fall apart
When the tear drops start to fall
Somehow, I'll get through
Find a sky of blue, I'll be fine
When you don't call
I'm talking to the sky
Oh, please tell me why you didn't say goodbye
At all, you didn't you say goodbye

[Chorus]
'Cause I've got pennies in a jar
To prove that I had you
I was too small, I don't recall that gift from you
I was counting my pennies on the floor
As you carried your bags out the door
I guess that's what you had in mind
When you left your little girl behind
You couldn't give your heart
Just pennies in a jar
And every time I look at them
I wonder where you are
[Verse 2]
Guess I've lost the simple rule of glass
Moments quickly turn to years
You never loved
You tied our future into dust
And now I wish that you'd been there
When I scraped my knee, falling from a tree
And I didn't even cry
When I did my best, but I failed that test
Stand there saying, “At least you tried”
When I found the boy, but he broke my heart
Said he's a sweet liar
Don't cry, baby please, don’t cry

[Bridge]
Pennies in a jar, and every time I look at them
I wonder, I wonder if you think of me
'Cause it seems like you forgot
Did you find those coins
Or buy me the love that would be lost
Am I better off without you?
Why couldn't you be strong?
I know you must've loved me
Oh, I wonder what went wrong

[Chorus]
Pennies in a jar, to prove I once had you
I was too small, I couldn't recall
That gift from you
I was counting my pennies on the floor
As you carried your bags out the door
I guess that's what you had in mind
When you left your little girl behind
[Outro]
Oh, pennies
To prove I once had you
