Penny Red

Miles away She posts a letter Every morning He does just the same Back to back Like folded leaves Those awful worries Cover every page No God's speed penny red Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire She wont see him again Fingers tap At window panes are drops of water No response for days Poles apart She strikes a match and draws the blinds in Shut herself away No God's speed penny red Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire Last Words in the wild Cast on the fire She wont see him again (Whoa)
