Lucky Pennies

I miss that feeling when you see
The small piece of copper sat by your feet
With a small face staring back at you

But these days I'm realizing I don't need
These lucky pennies sat by my feet
To have faces staring at me constantly

And I wish I could feel like it again
When you feel like all your problems
Are evaporating in your hands
When you pick up the lucky penny heads side up
Not ever lucky enough to cure all my bad luck

I'll never walk down the street
Searching for lucky pennies
Turned heads side up again

And I miss my naivety
Thinking that lucky pennies
Could solve all my problems
Time and time again
Time and time again

I just don't see why I can't be
Everything I've always wanted to be
When I thought I did everything right

But these days I'm finally starting to see
That these lucky pennies sat by my feet
Can't change my life completely

But I wish I could feel like it again
When I felt like all my problems
Were evaporating in my hands
When I pick up the lucky penny heads side up
Still not fucking lucky enough to cure all my bad luck

I'll never walk down the street
Searching for lucky pennies
Turned heads side up again

And I miss my naivety
Thinking that lucky pennies
Could solve all my problems
Time and time again
Time and time again

And I wish I could feel like it again
When I felt like all my problems
Were evaporating in my hands
When I pick up a lucky penny heads side up
They're never lucky enough to cure all my bad luck
