Wishing Well

When you fell into my arms
With your intoxicating charms
I truly saw it as a gift
A North Star for a life adrift
So even though the signs arose
Of what a rocky route we chose
I kept believing it was fate
Until the truth hit much too late

As I drive on one last road to you
With a life that's nearly torn in two
All the hope that new love sweetly brings
Is shattered and scattered among the boxes of your many things

I thought that we would make it, thought we had what it takes
Tried to believe that we could weave past our mistakes
Turns out the doubt was so much stronger than the spell
One more coin lost to the wishing well

I keep thinking 'bout those nights
We laughed ourselves to giddy heights
Elevated by our love
And guided by that star above
But like some searing fever dream
Things were hardly what they seemed
If I had only just looked down
I'd have seen the fast-approaching ground

As we part with one last foolish fight
We couldn't help try though that we might
All the truths I thought that you contained
Ended upended in my memory, forever unexplained

I thought that we would make it, thought we had what it takes
Tried to believe that we could weave past our mistakes
Turns out the doubt was so much stronger than the spell
One more coin lost to the wishing well

I thought that we would make it, thought we had what it takes
Tried to believe that we could weave past our mistakes
Turns out the doubt was so much ooooh
One more coin lost to the wishing well
One more coin lost to the wishing well
Will I find one more coin to toss to the wishing well?
