The Penny Drops

Sometimes we’re searching for answers
To questions on our mind
Not really sure what we’re looking for
That turns into a question of time



We’re covering the same old ground
Over and over again
Never seeing anything different
When will this searching end



Then all of a sudden the penny drops
Click, everything falls into place
Piece by piece the puzzle completes
And we stand there quietly amazed



We're blind sometimes to the signs
That stare us in the face
Answers lie in front of our eyes
But we miss them along the way



Then all of a sudden the penny drops
Click, everything falls into place
Piece by piece the puzzle completes
And we stand there quietly amazed



Bridge
How could it of been so easy
The answer was there all the time
I didn’t see the simplicity
All this time my eyes were blind



Then all of a sudden the penny drops
Click, everything falls into place
Piece by piece the puzzle completes
And we stand there quietly amazed



We must have passed it several times
Reading through the same old lines
No it didn’t even cross our mind
The missing link that we would find



Then all of a sudden the penny drops
Click, everything falls into place
Piece by piece the puzzle completes
And we stand there quietly amazed

Very well done my friend and well expressed. I think sometimes we are so busy looking for the answer we don't see it staring us in the face. Sometimes we are so busy finding fault that the solution is hidden by our incessant complaints. well done. God Bless, JB
