A Penny for Your Thoughts Lyrics


You're sittin' here, all wrapped up in my arms
But your mind seems to be a mile away
And now and then you say umm hmm and aha
When you don't even know what I'm about to sayA penny for your thoughts, girl
A penny for your thoughtsLast night I called, they said you were out
I thought maybe you had gone to the grocery store
Now I know that you went on a lil' bit farther
'Coz I never saw you act this way beforeA penny for your thoughts, girl
A penny for your thoughtsSo bad I wanna ask you what's really on your mind
But I'm afraid of what the answer might be
Now I've always been told that love is blind
But I'd rather be blind than see you walk on away from meSo I close my eyes to what I know is goin' on
Just as long as I know that it makes you happy
'Coz in my eyes, girl, you can do no wrong
Just as long as you keep on givin' your love to meA penny for your thoughts, girl
A penny for your thoughts
Oh, I wanna know [Incomprehensible]
A penny for your thoughtsOh, I wanna know, I wanna know, what's on your mind

But I'm afraid of what the answer will be
Penny for your thoughts, girl
Penny for your thoughtsPenny for your thoughts
Tell me what's on your mind

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

William Bell was one of the finest of the Stax/Volt soul artists. Like Otis Redding, he was able to tell a story with great sincerity and flawless musicality. His song "You Don't Miss Your Water ('Til Your Well Runs Dry)" is a Memphis masterpiece.
