lyrics

Saw you at a matinee
As the curtains closed
It was written all over your face

And for the rest of the day
You couldn't shake the feeling
I just kept talking
You let me follow you around

Down to the Alamo Beach
To meet your friends
They all look so cool
I shouldn't even pretend

I said the least cool thing
Doesn't the sand feel nice between your toes
But she didn't hear me
Or she wasn't listening
Or maybe she was

Oh, Penelope
If you went with me
I'd know that the end was near

Oh, Penelope
If you went with me
It would all come clear
It would all come clear
It would all come clear

You don't need to try so hard
I like the way you are
My friends aren't really my friends
I just stand next to them
While they say things

You don't need to try so hard
Just write to me
Your poetry is cute
And so are you
And so are you

And then the stars came out
As we lay on a blanket
She held my hand and said
They don't make 'em like you anymore
They don't make 'em like you anymore
They don't make 'em like you anymore
They don't make 'em like you anymore
