Wishing You Well

I print it up, I join the dots

I fill in any spaces I should stumble on

Here in this, trapped in this tale

of love gone wrong

I hold my, I hope to die

Or wake to find that all of this

has passed me by

Here in this, trapped in this unfolding tale

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you well

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you well

I fumble on, the days are long

I tell myself I must, I must, I must be strong

Here in this, trapped in this unfolding tale

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you well

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you well

The story unfolds from your sorry lips

Hitting hard against my skin

Seeping down beneath the surface

And setting up home therein

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you well

I'm doing my best at

Wishing you, wishing you, wishing you

Wishing you, wishing you well

I'm doing my best at
