A Penny For Your Thoughts Lyrics

Lynn Anderson A Penny For Your Thoughts

While walking by your side along the way
I spied a tiny cup of penny on the ground
Because your thoughts that day seemed, oh, so far away
I handed you the penny I had found.

A penny for your thoughts, a penny for your thoughts
I ask you not expecting the answer that I got
You told of someone else and how you cared a lot
Look at all the heartache one tiny penny bought.

--- Instrumental ---

My penny's worth of tears will last a million years
And be forever in this heart of mine
I'll be so well supplied with dreams I know have died
My penny's worth sure last a long long time.

A penny for your thoughts, a penny for your thoughts
I ask you not expecting the answer that I got
You told of someone else and how you cared a lot
Look at all the heartache one tiny penny bought...
