[Verse 1]
A penny for your thoughts
What's left of my ego?
My eyes, a lifetime of blind obedience for your love

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm just dumb enough to beg
Hands and knees and everything
Short of a diamond ring
I won't be fooled again

[Chorus]
I'm wasting my time chasing your light
A circuitous clown balancing on a wire between two lives
Man, I'm just wasted

[Verse 2]
A penny for your thoughts
And quite literally the entirety of my life insurance policy for your love

[Bridge]
I hope it's enough

[Outro]
(Away) You're so soft-spoken you might blow away
(Away) You're so soft-spoken you might blow away
(Away) You're so soft-spoken that I'm afraid you might blow away
I'm afraid
