Lyrics

I saw her walking alone one day on Sugar Street
And her appearance really took me by surprise
I was just fifteen and wasting time
On a bench outside the five and dime
With a cold bottle of Pepsi and some fries
I took a chance and I said hi to her
And I swear that some kind of magic did occur when I looked into her eyes

Me and Penelope would meet
Every evening down on Sugar Street
We would walk hand in hand
And when we reached the park we’d listen to the band
Down on Sugar Street is where we fell in love

She was blessed with a beauty that could rival any sunset
The sun danced on her golden hair
And stars flashed in her eyes
In those moments it seemed like I’d won the cosmic lottery
And I was holding hands with its greatest prize
And though we waved hello to everyone we’d see
All I saw was her
And all she saw was me

Me and Penelope would meet
Every evening down on Sugar Street
In the shade of the maple trees above
We would walk hand in hand
And when we reached the park we’d listen to the band
Down on Sugar Street is where we fell in love

All my friends on the street
Wink at me as we pass by
When I was with her I was cool
And I didn’t need to try
I remember all these things
And I probably always will
Like I remember before Christmas
She had dumped me for some guy named Bill

Me and Penelope would meet
Every evening down on Sugar Street
In the shade of the maple trees above
We would walk hand in hand
And when we reached the park we’d listen to the band
Down on Sugar Street is where we fell in love

Down on Sugar Street is where we fell in love
