Wishing Well lyrics

Well I run a little tavern on a dead end street

And my ears are pretty bent

By the time I close at three

Everybody`s got a wish that comes in here

A little amnesia for the price of a beer

And Dale knows that I know all about his wife

And what it is she`s doing and

Who she`s with tonight

But I don`t say a word about it

And neither does he

He just talks about them Dodgers

And buys another drink



(Chorus)

Down at The Wishing Well

Forgetfulness is what`s for sale

To help wash away the sin of lovers and friends

Or just forgive themselves

A place to throw their money down

In hopes of getting lost or found

You ought to hear the stories

They don`t tell

Down at The Wishing Well



They say Gina was a heartbreaker

Back in her day

But years and hard living

Put the lines on her face

Now she only wants a man

Who can see her like before

So she sips her margarita and watches the door



(Repeat Chorus)



Yeah I`ll pour you a drink seven nights a week

And I`ll listen to what you say or you don`t

Cause that`s how I forget

The reasons that I`m alone
