Sons of Daughters - Penny

Verse1 Regrets from an old man Death bed he lay White knuckled grip watched the blood rush away Stared a hole through me Cold empty eyes Shivers right through me as I watched him die. Chorus How's one to know it'd be gone in a moment You'd give anything to be back on that train ol whistle blownin', full steam 'a rolling Won't be back again Blink and you'll miss it, gone in an instant Couldn't see you had it all in front of your face A penny laying flat on the track. It'll never be the same. Verse 2 Teacher a father, lover and friend World at this fingers a man among men With a life full of laughter, spark in his eye Shivers right through me as I watched him die Chorus How's one to know it'd be gone in a moment You'd give anything to be back on that train ol whistle blownin', full steam 'a rolling Won't be back again Blink and you'll miss it, gone in an instant Couldn't see you had it all in front of your face A penny laying flat on the track. it'll never be the same. Bridge Don't throw out your pennies they're worth more than gold Don't take them for granted, no guarantees that you're gonna grown old
