Wishing Well
[Verse 1]
When I grew up I was given a coin
My Father sent me on my way down the road
I held my coin tight, though many came to take
I knew my job was to protect what he gave
[Chorus]
I saw a well full of enchantment
The well called my name
I look in and saw my desires
"Make a wish, come and see"
[Verse 2]
I tossed my coin into the dark deep well
And down and down it fell, it fell
[Bridge]
Then nothing, nothing seemed to happen
Here I stood, waiting to believe
Still nothing, nothing came up from the well
Fell down to my knees and started to weep
[Verse 3]
Tricked, tied up I was
Led astray by empty promises
And now I can't pay my way
I’ll never get where I'm going
[Outro]
Lost my soul at the wishing well
Gave away what I shouldn't sell
Nowhere to go, no not anymore
I’ll never reach that golden shore
