A Penny For My Thoughts

If I had a penny for every thought of you,
I'd be the richest person in the world.
Streets would be covered with pennies,
And the skies would be bright and shiny.
 
I begin each day with the thoughts of your love,
Your smile just brightens my life.
A penny for my thoughts could fill an ocean,
If I had a penny for every time I thought of you.
 
The weight of the clouds would burst open the skies,
Sprinkling pennies everywhere to be found.
My dreams would be filled with love for you,
If I had a penny for every thought of you.
 
I can't sleep at night just thinking of you,
I lay in my bed just counting my pennies.
Then another thought of you . . .
And I have to start counting all over again.
 
One million and seven, one million and eight . . . oops.
Another thought of you . . .
One million and seven, one million . . . oops.
Oh, the hell with it!  

one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight . . .
