The Clarks Lyrics
"Penny On The Floor"

There's a penny on the floor and you're gone
The television's on
Have you found another man to take my place

There's a penny on the floor and I'm wise
I try to see in your eyes
But all I see is a reflection of my face

There's a penny on the floor and you're gone
I'm tryin' to right what's wrong
A stronger man might do it with more grace

There's a penny on the floor and I'm wise
I look up to the skies
I cry and pray and I stare out into space

There's a penny on the floor and you're standin' at the door
Turn around and say good bye
A woman like you comes around just once a life

There's a penny on the floor and I'm strong
I try to carry on,
Realize that no one can take your place

There's a penny on the floor and I'm fine
I know its gonna take some time
Before I look at you without lookin' at my own face

A penny on the floor
I'm tired of the war
A penny on the track
Are you comin' back?

There's a penny on the floor and it stays
As a tribute to the days
That were spent with you
No one can take them away

There's a penny on the floor and it stays
As a tribute to the ways
You filled my soul with courage, hope, and grace

There's a penny on the floor and you're standin' at the door
Turn around and say good bye
A woman like you comes around just once a life

There's a penny on the floor and you're standin' at the door
Turn around and say good bye
A woman like you comes around
And won't bring me down
