COUNTING CROWS - Wishing Well lyrics

rate me

Did you think you were unbelievable

Then, I see that

Twenty-four hours in a wishing well

Thinking about drowning

Thinking about pennies from heaven

I guess I'll realize in a day or more

I guess I'll tilt my head back in the rain

Drown myself on sky

I guess I'll realize in a day or more

I guess I'll realize when I'm buried in the evidence

Did you think you were irresponsible

Well I don't see that

One or two children on a working man's salary

Doesn't seem like a lot to ask

I guess I'll realize in a day or more

I guess I'll realize when her baby starts to cry

Mothers in welfare lines

Husbands who said good-bye

I think I realize

I think I realize, yeah

Didn't you wonder where your bright-eyed baby boy had gone

He's sleeping in the bottom of a wishing well

Whispering the ripples through the fates and changes

Did you think you were young and beautiful

Then, I see that

One or two people sliding gracefully together and apart

This sort of thing never lasts

I guess I'll realize in a day or more

I guess I'll realize when I'm twisting in the wind

After I say good-bye, I guess I'll understand why

I guess I realize

I guess I realize

Didn't you wonder where your bright-eyed baby boy has gone

He's a victim in the bottom of a wishing well

Wishing he was anywhere but there and gone

And, didn't anyone wonder where their bright-eyed baby boy has gone

He's sleeping in the bottom of a wishing well

Wishing he wasn't suffering all the same dreams all day long

I think I realize

I think I realize

Ahh baby, I think that I realize

I think I realize..
