"Pennies From Heaven" lyrics - JAMES TAYLOR

Back a long time ago, a million years BC
All the best things in this life, were absolutely free
But no one appreciated, a sky that was always blue
And nobody anticipated, a moon that was always new
So it was planned that they would vanish now and then
And we must pay before we get them back again
That's what storms were made for
You shouldn't be afraid for

Every time it rains it rains, pennies from heaven
Don't you know each cloud contains, pennies from heaven
You'll find your fortune falling all over town
Make sure that your umbrella is upside down

Trade it for a package of, sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, you must have showers
So when you hear it thunder don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven for you and for me

You'll find your fortune falling all over town
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade it for a package of, sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love, you must have showers
So when you hear it thunder, don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven for you and for me
Yah, pennies from heaven
