Wishing Tree
I spend every night on my knees
In the shadow of a wishing tree
Branches swaying in the evening sun
I sit and think about the things I've done
Oh my darling, oh my gal
Careful what you ask of me
Only thing I'm good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree
Crossed my heart beside the wishing brook
Trying to salvage what the bad years took
But in the ripples and the dark below
Only answer was an undertow
Oh my darling oh my gal
Careful where you drop your hook
Only thing I'm good for now
Is casting out into the wishing brook
Threw my money in the wishing pool
Just like every other desperate fool
Trying to tempt the gods and change my fate
Just a little too little too late
Oh my darling oh my gal
I love a story where the dream comes true
Only thing I'm good for now
Is throwing money in the wishing pool
Oh my darling oh my gal
Can't get a thing in this life for free
Only thing I'm good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree
In the shadow of a wishing tree
Branches swaying in the evening sun
I sit and think about the things I've done
Oh my darling, oh my gal
Careful what you ask of me
Only thing I'm good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree
Crossed my heart beside the wishing brook
Trying to salvage what the bad years took
But in the ripples and the dark below
Only answer was an undertow
Oh my darling oh my gal
Careful where you drop your hook
Only thing I'm good for now
Is casting out into the wishing brook
Threw my money in the wishing pool
Just like every other desperate fool
Trying to tempt the gods and change my fate
Just a little too little too late
Oh my darling oh my gal
I love a story where the dream comes true
Only thing I'm good for now
Is throwing money in the wishing pool
Oh my darling oh my gal
Can't get a thing in this life for free
Only thing I'm good for now
Is blowing kisses at the wishing tree
