Wishing Well

Last night I dreamed of falling

Down a wishing well.

No one could hear me calling

From where I fell.

And from above the ground

The world and all her sounds

I could faintly hear

Songs, vows, playgrounds, tears.

I fell in a wishing well

And who, who have I become?

Now the damage is done

Not even angels saw me

Bright in my eyes.

From tall starry skies.

And then a searchlight shone upon me

For all this time I prayed

Now stranger I'm afraid

You might come around.

I might call you down.

I fell in a wishing well

Now the damage is done

And who, who have I become?

I'm through with my dream come true.

Then it's just begun

And who, who have I become?

Opened my eyes and woke up twice this morning

Lately getting up has only got me down.

Maybe there's a place where I can live again

Never leave the ground.

I fell in a wishing well

Now the damage is done

(Now the damage is done)

And who, who have I become?

And it's just begun.

I'm through with my dream come true

Who, who have I become
