Penelope Featherington

(album: The Unofficial Bridgerton Musical - 2021)

[Penelope]
Never as thin
Never as perfect
Never for him
Never deserving of the boy I love

Never the star
Always an asteroid
Delicate heart
Forever the last choice of the one I want

So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on that fictional fairytale end
You're not Cinderella
You're just Penelope Featherington

Never as prim
Never as proper
Never a whim
Never an offer from my Bridgerton
And Colin will never see
Behind the yellow that covers me
Just an afterthought

So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on the fictional fairytale end
Forever in yellow
You're just Penelope Featherington

He would hold my hand
He'd be more than just a friend
If only someone else would just understand
He'd be like my prince
Steal me with a kiss
But that's not real life
Never dressed in white

Cuz I'm never as thin
Never as perfect
Never for him
Never deserving of the boy I love

Never the star
Always an asteroid
Delicate heart
Forever the last choice of the one I want

So I keep it all in
It's like I'm invisible in my own skin
Give up on the fictional fairytale end
Forever in yellow
You're just Penelope Featherington
