Story Behind the Song
This was the first song written for the "A Penny for Jenny" collection of songs. I wrote the melody rather quickly but the lyrics were only finished recently.
Lyrics
Jenny say you wanted more than this.
Though you feel me only on the phone,
Don't you look at me with doubting eyes,
But believe that we can find a way.
Oh Jenny, did you know
I wrote a song for you,
Just a token to show
How much I needed you?
Jenny say you thought of me today.
Every day, I think too much of you.
And I only need to hear you say
That you want to help me find a way.
Oh Jenny, can't you see
I wrote a song for you,
And what you do to me,
Hoping you feel it, too?
Jenny say you will not turn away
'Cause it hurts to miss me even now.
Love is hard, when loving from afar.
But I know that we can find a way.
Oh Jenny, yesterday,
I wrote a song for you,
To show you there is a way
We can make it through.
And Jenny, every day,
Why do I think of you?
I want you any way
If you want it, too.
