Brown Penny


You came into my life 5 years ago your beauty so radiant like new fallen snow You were unlike any other, I always wondered what life would be like if we were together Then others came at us with historic opposition, But we broke through that submission You were the salt to my pepper I was the ink to your paper Together we forged a new name Brown Penny Brown Penny, Brown Penny No matter what others said, Their opinion to us was dead You don't know it but someone once said, We are a couple born by implausibility and impossibility, But it seemed that fate kept bringing us back together Brown Penny, Brown Penny When my life became hard to decipher, I had one constant reminder Unlike the Scottish men who had their Bonnie, I had you my Brown Penny Oh Brown Penny, Brown Penny But then came about the day was your un-announed farewell, There I was left to dwell For our tale had been told My warmth soon turned to cold Whether you're home or away, I will not wither in dismay I have looked in the eyes of many, But just like yesterday, today, and tomorrow you are my Brown Penny.
