[Verse 1]
If I had a dollar every time I thought of you
I'd get rich so quick I wouldn't know what to do
If I had a nickel every time you crossed my mind
I could make a dollar so quick I'd leave all of my worries behind
[Chorus]
But if I can't have you I'll just be
Sinking like a penny in the wishing well
If I can't have you I'll just be
Wasting all my pennies in the wishing well
Penny in the wishing well
[Verse 2]
I don't make money and I don't make sense
Just sitting here writing songs, wondering where the love went
You could buy a car with all the quarters I spent
In the jukebox playing our song again and again
[Chorus]
If I can't have you I'll just be
Sinking like a penny in the wishing well
If I can't have you I'll just be
Wasting all my pennies in the wishing well
Penny in the wishing well
[Bridge]
Take a chance, make a splash
One of these days a stone you throw is gonna leave a ripple that lasts
One day it's gonna last
[Chorus]
But if I can't have you I'll just be
Sinking like a penny in the wishing well
If I can't have you I'll just be
Wasting all my pennies in the wishing well
If I can't have you I'll just be
Sinking like a penny in the wishing well
If I can't have you I'll just be
Wasting all my pennies in the wishing well
Penny in the wishing well
