Lyrics

VERSE
Penny would come to me when tears would blind her
’Cause I could make her laugh and ease the pain
Each time love would let her down I’d find her
Standing at my door again

VERSE
She came to me that night to find a shoulder
Neither of us planned it at the time
But somewhere in my trying to console her
We both crossed the line

CHORUS
(And) That night I held an angel
So why the devil does it have to feel so wrong
Mixin’ teardrops and warm red wine
With loneliness turned out to be too strong
She trusted me to hold her
Wipe away her tears and understand
And I’ve never lost as much
As when I let that Penny slip right through my hands

VERSE
I should have known that night would just confuse her
So in a self-made hell I’ll have to burn
No man in his right mind would want to lose her
Now I’m just one less place where she can turn

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/BRIDGE
And I’d trade every dime that I’ll ever have
For just one Penny’s worth of love

Repeat CHORUS/TAG
No, I’ve never lost as much
As when I let that Penny slip right through my hands
