Pennies In A Jar - Nikki Jean

All I recall are fireworks and fireflies
That lit the sky
Seem to imply if I could catch them
Why couldn't I bottle up the stars pennies in a jar
That's how I saw the world
Every sea shell held apart
And I thought my heart was part of a story
Novel and new
Something that I could tell my dreams to
What did I do
Filled it up with stars pennies in a jar
And I earned everyone
Nothing burns quite like the sun
When the shadows fall I lose my place and can't recall
Why did I dare to fly What was gained
So I search for silver lost out in the rain
I think I finally found it
There's a change inside me there a change in all I see oh
Little change
Some days are grey but others are gilded with victory
They used to be what made life rich
But now I can see
Days for what they are
Pennies in a jar I will spend with you
I will spend with you
