A Million Pennies Would Get Me No Where...

by ABake   Dec 22, 2007


The wound was almost closed, undergone it's repair,
Then, you come back around and re-open my wound...
How am I supposed to react when you left me all alone;
Assuming I would be fine, your assumption was wrong.

You were everything to me and I once was the same,
That was months ago, you are a different person now...
I wish I could change the way things happened;
Sadly the problem is that I can't go back into time.

I wish I could say I still know you; you're just a memory
Watching the rain fall, we are both caught up in the past;
Reading your old love letters and the false words written
I will pretend that they meant something; tears fall now,

When you see me I wonder if you look right through-
Through the cover up I constantly rely on to live...
The tone of your voice tells me you aren't buying it,
My eyes are begging with your hands to hold me tightly;

Another night another silly dream that will not come true
No shooting star could bring you back to me...
A million pennies into a wishing well wouldn't either;
"Wishes are false hopes that never come true"
