Penny For Your Thoughts

It all started that one autumn evening Wind blowing by my hair and tree leaves rustling Echoing over my warm laughter With yours blending in. As the tinge of sunset hues reflected in your eyes Like they did in mine Perhaps I should've said it then Or maybe after we left the ice-cream parlor Or the cinema, the internet café, The restaurant or even the amusement park I guess you noticed But again you couldn't possibly have. I'd trade it all for you For memories that would never grow old like autumn trees I'd love to relive all our moments. Guess I really should've said it Maybe I'd still be making photocards with you under the warm sunlight gaze Its now winter My nights are longer and my heart is colder They say distance makes the heart grow fonder But perhaps my string of fate isn't tied to yours If I'd said then that the one thing I can't trade Is my reality for yours Maybe, just maybe I'd have someone as sweet as you to ask me "Penny for your thoughts?"
