Farewell wishing well
I've said what's on my mind
There's no more to tell
So take another dime
I must be moving on
Now that shadows grow long
I never was the superstitious kind
What is this waking me
Down in the deep
Voice like a silver coin
Rings in my sleep
Don't be so hasty
No don't turn your back
I could deliver you all that you ask
We've done all we can do all by ourselves
Everybody needs a little help
Stuck in place, it's been so long
A little push will keep us going
What sweet melody
Echoes soft and low
No one here but me
Yet I am not alone
Did I wake up in a dream
That's no reflection I see
Swimming in the waters
Down below
Begging your pardon
I know what you wish
Let's make a bargain
And both benefit
So much ambition (Did I wake up in a dream)
And I hold the key (That's no reflection I see)
My proposition is (Swimming in the waters)
Down in the wishing well
Done all we can do all by ourselves
Everybody needs a little help
Stuck in place, it's been so long
A little push will keep us going
Black hair, skin so fair
Eyes of jaded green
A beauty with an emerald stare
So hungry and so sweet
How can I be sure
Such a slippery creature
Will keep her fishy promises to me
Treasures and riches and servants and silks
Power to bend all the world to your will
Glory or love (How can I be sure)
Or whatever you seek (Such a slippery creature)
I'll grant your wishes (Will keep her fishy promises)
Down in the wishing well
Come in the water (Fall in the water)
Come swim in the water (Deep dark cold water)
Down in the wishing well (Way down in the wishing well)
Come in the water (Fall in the water)
Come swim in the water (Deep dark cold water)
Down in the wishing well (Way down in the wishing well)
Done all we can do all by ourselves
Everybody needs a little help
Stuck in place
It's been so long
A little push will keep us going
Farewell wishing well
I leave you with this song
I'm free from the spell
That held me for so long
Is it such a wicked thing
For one who would be king
To grant dominion of
This wet abode
Ten thousand gods damn you
I was such a fool
Snared by your serpent tongue
Trapped in this pool
I swear by the skies (Is it such a wicked thing)
That are ringed by these stones (For one who would be king)
Misfortune will find you (To grant dominion)
Down in the wishing well
Down in the wishing well
Down in the wishing well
Down in the wishing well
