Lyrics
See a penny and pick it up
I couldn't believe my good luck
Lighting struck, and I found you
Wandering in the park
In that way you do
In tune with the world around you
Enjoying the ride you're attuned to.
[Chorus]
When I'm loving you,
you can reach deep inside
Those fragile memories where my fears hide
Heal the pieces that have been broken apart
You make me the person who is one in heart
The journey before us
Let's go on our way
No need to worry now,
Hand in hand chasing off the gray
(solo)
[bridge]
See a penny and pick it up
I couldn't believe my good luck
Lighting struck, and I found you
Like a melody your voice is heard
Captivated with every word
Just a penny and a lightning strike
[verse]
Small change to a cosmic event
You're a gift the heavens sent
A spark ignited; a flame so bright
Turning darkness into light
Penny for luck, they always say
But you're worth more than I can pay
A miracle in disguise, I see
You, the lightning strike, meant for me
[Chorus]
When I'm loving you,
you can reach deep inside
Those fragile memories where my fears hide
Heal the pieces that have been broken apart
You make me the person who is one in heart
The journey before us
Let's go on our way
No need to worry now,
Hand in hand chasing off the gray
