Place the Pennies
Subtle are life's treasures,
Like sunlight on the waves
Like breezing through an easy day
Your lover find the ways
The days turn into nights
There's nothing more to say
But the storm turns on the tide
There's no one who is saved
Souls are lost at night
No death knell for the brave
Silence me, it's not my hour of need
Close my eyes, place the pennies
You wander through the churchyard
Rain on my parade
Simple are Death's pleasures
Rainfall on the graves
The bleakness of eternity
There's nothing left to say
Ships are lost in flight
A death knell for the brave
'cause the tide turned in the storm
There's not a soul to be saved
Silence me, though 'tis my hour of need
Still my eyes see the pennies
Don't cry for me, my words you've got to heed
Close my eyes, place the pennies
Don't cry for me, it is my hour indeed
Close my eyes, place the pennies
Subtle are life's pleasures
The rainfall on the graves
Simple are Death's treasures
Like sunlight on the waves
