A long time ago, a million years B.C
The best things in life were absolutely free
But no one appreciated a sky that was always blue
And no one congratulated a moon that was always new
So it was planned that they would vanish now and then
And you must pay before you get them back again
That's what storms were made for
But 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's falling
all over town.
Make sure that your umbrella
is upside down.
Trade them for a package of
sunshine and flowers,
Cause if you want the things you love,
you must have showers
So if you hear it thunder
don't run under a tree,
There'll be pennies from heaven
for you and me.
So if you hear it thunder
don't run under a tree.
There'll be pennies from heaven
for you and me.
There'll be pennies from heaven
for you and me.
