Pennies

Pennies I would count for a moment with you now
The shallow depth of fake relief
That I would weep me a willow to lie beneath and wait
To see your face

A million or more for this life
Would not be much
A million or more for this life
Would not be much

The pennies I would count for a moment with you now
The trap that’s laid in fate
Step by step the walk made easy by the destination
Step by step
Forget

Pennies I would count for a moment with you now
The weight of all these savings
Buried beneath my wept willow tree
The carving of our names

A million or more for this life
Would not be much
A million or more for this life
Would not be much
Pennies I would count

Just the moment you were thinking of is gone
And all the sadness you could bank on
The chase of time has taken toll upon my soul
The depth of you I choose to leave behind

A million or more for this life
Would not be much
A million or more for this life
Would not be much

The pennies I would count
The pennies I would count
The trap that’s laid in fate
