Story Behind the Song
It doesn't matter how strong a relationship is, there are times, when communication breaks down. When this happens, whether it's as serious as we may believe it is, or not, it leaves both parties doubting the other's love. For some reason, we no longer care about anything that takes place around us. Our only ambition, is hold on, for all it's worth. Because, once you've known what true love is.........I have a shortness of breath, and my chest aches, just thinking about it.
Lyrics
A PENNY FOR YOUR THOUGHTS
Verse 1:
A penny for your thoughts, just to know what's on your mind.
I feel alone even when you're near, thought our love was doing fine.
When we lay in bed at night, sometimes I can hear you cry.
I try to pull you close to me, but you cling to your own side.
Chorus:
You're gaining distance, moving further away, reaching out for something that I can't find.
My heart is pleading, I don't know what to say, there isn't anything that I haven't tried.
Verse 2:
A penny for your thoughts, just to know what's on your mind.
If you need to be alone a while, because I love you, I'll give you the time.
It wasn't so long ago, that you swore you'd always be mine.
Now it seems your feelings slowly are fading and your love's becoming much too confined.
Chorus:
Music:
Bridge:
I'll stay beside you til you ask me to leave, you need to know my love is more than sincere.
I'm not throwing any towel in yet, until you say those words I hope I'll never hear.
Tag:
I'll give you a penny for your thoughts, and a thousand if you'll stay.
My heart is breaking and I'm falling apart, I just know that you're going away.
I love you more than anything in this world, if you'll just talk to me, talk to me, a penny is a small price to pay.
