Wishing Well

I haven't got anybody to blame but me
There were signs everywhere I did not see
I was so busy dreaming I slipped and fell
Straight down to the bottom of the wishing well

I can still hear me laughing at your advice
You said, "take a look at your life or pay the price"
I'd admit my mistake but there's no one to tell
Down here at the bottom of the wishing well

I guess people like me
Have to find out too late
That the things that really matter won't wait
No, you can't leave it to fate

There ain't no rope in sight and no sign of you
Just this ladder of stones and a patch of blue
From that fork in the road you can't hear me yell
Down here at the bottom of the wishing well

I guess people like me
Have to find out too late
That the things that really matter won't wait
No, you gotta make your fate

There ain't no rope in sight and no sign of you
Just this ladder of stones and a patch of blue
Since I'm already down here I wish like hell
We'd have come together to the wishing well

I'm down here at the bottom of the wishing well
