Wishing Well Lyrics

He lost it all in California, driving down to Tennessee

His memory pulled him to an empty well, hidden by the dogwood trees

He flipped his wheels, still high on pills

So isolated and addicted to his misery

Is it all real, down smoky hills

Just coins and ripples turning thoughts into what could be

By the wishing well, by the wishing well

An old song but your heart can't tell when you're out there raising hell

By the wishing well, by the water

Flipped a coin, watched it as it fell

Just trying to make some bail

Good luck it ain't for sale, no

Good luck to the easy lovers

Casting hopes and dreams

Smile while I find open hearts to leave

Golden totems slow to throw them down

To the pockets of some waiting thief

By the wishing well, by the wishing well

An old song but your heart can't tell when you're out there raising hell

By the wishing well, by the water

Flipped a coin, watched it as it fell

Just trying to make some bail

Good luck it ain't for sale
