A Penny For Your Thoughts

T  A  V  A  R  E  S




I've got to know where I stand 
I just for to know where I am with you

So here's penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

Walkin' holdin' hands, you say you're mine all mine 
Then soon another face steals your eyes away 
It's just a guessing game and I can't help feelin' used 
Love shouldn't be so darn confused

So here's penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

People love to talk, they say you're usin' me 
Though face to face you swear I'm the only one 
If I had a crystal ball I would gaze into your mind 
See what you were thinkin', if my ship was sinkin' 
If you're leavin' me behind

So here's penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

Girl, it should be so darn easy to do 
If you love me like I love you

Girl, if I had a crystal ball 
[A crystal ball] I would gaze into your mind 
See what you were thinkin', if my ship was sinkin' 
If you're leavin' me behind

So here's penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

Girl, it should be so darn easy to do 
If you love me like I love you

So here's penny for your thoughts 
(Hey, baby), a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
(You tell me you love me) 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

So here's penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
(Ooh, your thoughts, baby) 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
(Ooh, a kiss, baby) 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
Penny for your thoughts {Only me, only me}, 
a nickel for a kiss 
(Just me) {Yeah, yeah, yeah} (Oh, yeah, yeah)

Penny for your thoughts (Just your thoughts), 
a nickel for a kiss (And a kiss, baby) 
A dime if you tell me that you love me 
(Tell me you love me) 
Penny for your thoughts {Only me}, a nickel for a kiss 
{Darling, can't you see} 
(Oh, yeah) {Yeah, yeah} (Yeah, yeah)

Penny for your thoughts (Ooh, baby),
 a nickel for a kiss 
A dime if you tell me that you love me

It's My Turn



DIANA ROSS


I can't cover up my feelings
In the name of love
Or play it safe
For a while that was easy
And if living for myself
Is what I'm guilty of
Go on and sentence me
I'll still be free

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
With no apologies
I've given up the truth
To those I've tried to please

But now it's my turn
If I don't have all the answers
At least I know
I'll take my share of chances
Ain't no use of holding on
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
With no more room for lies
For years I've seen my life
Through someone else's eyes

And now it's my turn
To try and find my way
And if I should get lost
At least I'll own today

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
And there ain't no use in holding on
When nothing stays the same

So I'll let it rain
'Cause the rain ain't gonna hurt me
And I'll let you go
'Though I know it won't be easy

It's my turn
To see what I can see
I hope you'll understand
This time's just for me

Because it's my turn
To turn and say goodbye
I sure would like to know
That you're still on my side

Because it's my turn
It's my turn

It's my turn
To start from number one
Trying to undo
Some damage that's been done

But now it's my turn
To reach and touch the sky
No one's gonna say
At least I didn't try

It's my turn
Yes, it's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn
It's my turn

BARRY MANILOW

Candles burning
glasses are chilled and soon
she'll be by
Hope and pray
she'll say that she's 
willing to give us
another try

And if all those plans I've made
don't melt the lady's heart
I'll put on the old 45s

(chorus)
And maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
Maybe the old lines will sound new
Maybe shell lay her head on my shoulder
Maybe old feelings will come through
Maybe well start to cry
and wonder why
we ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay

Its been too long since I've
seen her face light up
when I come home
It's been too many
hours I've wasted staring
at the phone
Sweet old songs I'm counting on you
to bring her back to me
I'm tired of listening alone

(chorus)

Want to stay
And maybe well start to cry
and wonder why
we ever walked away
Maybe the old songs
will bring back the old times
and make her want to stay
