The Spring Standards - Crushing Pennies lyrics

Oh you commandeered my love It was useful for the time Like whiskey and wine Oh you set these flowers drying Hung up while they're dying But better left to lay And oh my love won't you take a little of this hurt from me And oh my love won't you share the burden of this love with me And oh still I'm crushing pennies They're weighing down my pockets Useless in my debts And oh laying down in my arms If loving you's a crime Lord knows I'll serve my time And oh my love won't you take a little of this hurt from me And oh my love won't you share the burden of this love with me Oh you commandeered my love It was useful for the time Like whiskey and wine
