Lyrics Penny for Your Thoughts - Einar Stray Orchestra

Penny for Your Thoughts

Oh, a penny for your thoughts
Even though I’m broke
Are you broken up about it?
We cough up caramel
We cry coffee tears
If someone really cares we don’t care
In the nuance of your tone
I can hear it all
You’re smiling and you’re not
At same the time
All we ever want
How is that enough?
We got everything
But there’s something missing
We got everything we dreamed of except for dreams
We’re everything they ever wanted us to be
Penny, I wanna be someone else
A penny for your all thoughts
Fill me up tonight!
We could swim against the stream
If only as a pastime
Pass me anything
Something meaningful
In a pickle, pick a fight
Shouldn’t fear the light
Nor Norwegians nights dark and gloomy
Back when we were kids
You made a funny face in the Caravelle
Drove the driver mad
With all due respect what did you expect?
First lady, president?
Got to do it yourself
We got everything we dreamed of except for dreams
We’re everything they ever wanted us to be
We got everything we dreamed of except for real dreams
Penny, I wanna be somewhere else
A penny for your all thoughts
Fill me up tonight!
Your time is worth a million in gold
Cut loose, we’re used to forgiving
The only thing we ́re getting is older
Old age, it’s ours for the taking
Might seem like a pie in your face
I’ll keep the change, your mind’s worth a million
I know you find it a little strange
If you point blame, you’re blaming yourself
