Brenda Lee - Something for a Rainy Day Lyrics

(Rolan McCown)

I'm just a penny that fell from a hole in your pocket
And clattered to the gutter at your feet
I'm like a puppet on a broken string
Who lies completely helpless in a heap.

Just a hopeful heart standing in line
Hoping you might need me sometime
If you do you might call my name
But from now on I guess I'll always be that something
You saved for a rainy day that never came.

'Cause you've got sunshine
And fields of clover
But I feel so useless
Now that it's over.

You never said you'd leave me or that you didn't love me
And I guess you're gonna keep me on a string
So from now on I guess I'll always be that something
You saved for a rainy day that never came...
