[Verse 1] I found a marble on the bus Blue and cold in my palm A kid left it by the window Spun like a tiny planet You said "keep it for luck" So I put it in my coat It tapped against my keys Like a coin that knew my name [Pre-Chorus] And the day turned soft At the edges Like paper in rain You were laughing And I thought Maybe that’s enough [Chorus] Spare change sky Spare change sky Hold this day for me Spare change sky Spare change sky Don’t let it leave so easily [Verse 2] At the corner store The clerk hummed to the fan A lemon in the basket Rolled against a can My shoelace came undone Right where the curb ran high You tied it with a grin Like you’d done it a hundred times [Pre-Chorus] And the hour slid by In bright little pieces On the floor You were here I was sure I could ask for more [Chorus] Spare change sky Spare change sky Hold this day for me Spare change sky Spare change sky Don’t let it leave so easily [Bridge] If tomorrow comes in hard And the windows shake I’ll remember your hand And the marble’s weight [Final Chorus] Spare change sky Spare change sky Hold this day for me Spare change sky Spare change sky Don’t let it leave so easily Spare change sky Spare change sky Stay in my pocket, please
